Shortly thereafter, the Parties began discussion in an effort to resolve this dispute. The

6

Parties now ask that this Court extend the deadline to file a motion for additional attorney’s fees

7

pursuant to Rule 54 so that the Parties may continue their discussions, and to avoid further

8

expenditure of the Parties’ and this Court’s time and resources.
Rule 54 provides that a motion for attorney’s fees “must be filed no later than 14 days

11

would have until October 14, 2019, to file a motion for attorney’s fees. The Parties therefore

12

jointly and respectfully request that the Court extend the deadline to submit a motion for post-

13

judgment attorney’s fees until October 28, 2019, so that the Parties may have the requisite time to

14

resolve this matter and avoid potential further litigation.
