proposed scheduling order is to be filed by December 26, 2017. Plaintiff MARK HUNT
2
(“Hunt”), and Defendants ZUFFA, LLC d/b/a ULTIMATE FIGHTING
3
CHAMPIONSHIP (“Zuffa”), DANA WHITE (“White”) and BROCK LESNAR
4
(“Lesnar”) hereby stipulate to extend the deadline for parties to file the stipulated
5
discovery plan and proposed scheduling order for ten (10) days, until January 5, 2018.
6
This stipulation is based on the following:
7
Defendants Lesnar, Zuffa, and White have pending motions to dismiss before the
8
Court. Hunt filed a motion for leave to file a supplemental complaint on December 15,
9
2017. (ECF No. 100.) Counsel for all parties have conferred via e-mail regarding the
10
stipulated discovery plan and proposed scheduling order. This action will involve a high
11
volume of documents and electronic information. Counsel for Zuffa has advised it will
12
seek a stipulated protective order; Hunt and Lesnar will negotiate in good faith to reach
13
mutually agreeable stipulated protective order. The Court’s order on Lesnar’s motion to
14
stay discovery, consistent with Hunt’s agreement to stay RICO-related discovery, ordered
15
that discovery will be stayed as to Hunt’s first and second claims, but shall otherwise
16
proceed on all other claims.
17
Counsel for all parties intend to meet telephonically to discuss a discovery plan,
18
scheduling, and case-specific issues regarding a stipulated protective order and
19
consideration of crafting a discovery plan subject to the partial discovery stay. The parties
20
request a brief extension to permit lead counsel for all parties to participate in the
21
telephonic conference of counsel, and submit this will facilitate reaching potential
22
discovery agreements and stipulations consistent with F.R.C.P. 26 and LR 26-1. The
23
parties have been unable to coordinate a mutually convenient time for lead counsel to
24
participate in the telephonic conference prior to the Christmas holiday due to calendaring
25
conflicts with other matters and pre-existing travel obligations. The stipulated discovery
26
plan and proposed scheduling order is currently due on December 26, 2017. This is the
27
first request for an extension of time.
