III.

REASONS THAT DISCOVERY WAS NOT TIMELY COMPLETED

2

The parties seek an extension for the limited purpose of conducting the deposition of the

3

F.R.C.P. 30(b)(6) witness for Terra West. It was not until the Deposition of the F.R.C.P.

4

30(b)(6) witness for the HOA on February 27, 2018, that it became apparent that the HOA’s

5

Management Company, Terra West, would have more knowledge with respect to the underlying

6

Property, the collections process, and the subsequent HOA foreclosure sale. Based thereon, the

7

parties are unable to complete this deposition within the existing discovery cutoff date, which is

8

currently March 12, 2018.

9

IV.

REASONS WHY DISCOVERY SHOULD BE EXTENDED:

10

Good cause exists to extend the discovery cutoff and dispositive motion deadline thirty

11

(30) days for the limited purpose of deposing Terra West.1 Good cause to extend the discovery

12

cutoff exists "if it cannot reasonably be met despite the diligence of the party seeking the

13

extension." See Johnson v. Mammoth Recreations, Inc., 975 F.2d 604, 608-09 (9th Cir. 1992).

14

Here, Deutsche Bank completed the Deposition of the F.R.C.P. 30(b)(6) witness for the HOA

15

within the discovery period; however, it was not until the Deposition of the F.R.C.P. 30(b)(6)

16

witness for the HOA, that it became apparent that the HOA’s Management Company, Terra

17

West, would have more knowledge with respect to the facts and circumstances in this case.

18

V.

PROPOSED SCHEDULE FOR COMPLETING ALL REMAINING DISCOVERY
The parties propose that all dates in the current Stipulated Discovery Plan and Scheduling

Order, ordered on February 9, 2018 [ECF No. 30], be amended as follows:

21

1. Discovery cut-off: currently March 12 2018, desired April 11, 2018.

22

2. Dispositive Motions: currently April 11, 2018, desired May 11, 2018.

The parties request a thirty (30) extension, as opposed to an extension until the date Terra West’s Deposition is
currently noticed for, 03/22/2018, in the event that there are scheduling conflicts with Terra West.
