Case No. 2:17-cv-01466-JCM-NJK
ORDER
(Docket No. 32)

15

Discovery closed in this case on December 6, 2017. Docket No. 24. At 7:55 p.m. on December

16

6, 2017, the parties filed a stipulation to extend the discovery cutoff and subsequent deadlines by 90

17

days, equivalent to a whopping 50% increase to the presumptively reasonable discovery period. See

18

Docket No. 32; see also Local Rule 26-1(b)(1). The reasons provided are that Defendants Haus and

19

Beros were unavailable to attend their depositions as noticed on December 1, 2017, and their responses

20

to written discovery have been delayed by their counsel’s change of office address. Docket No. 32 at

21

3. Such reasons justify at most a 14-day extension, not a 90-day extension. Accordingly, the stipulation

22

to extend is GRANTED in part and DENIED in part, and the discovery cutoff is EXTENDED to

23

December 20, 2017. NO FURTHER EXTENSIONS WILL BE GRANTED.

24

The Court does not herein extend any other deadlines.

25

IT IS SO ORDERED.

DATED: December 7, 2017
