The status report indicates that the motion to dismiss is not potentially case-dispositive,
26 Docket No. 22 at 2 (indicating that breach of contract claim will remain), but no explanation is
provided as to why a case-wide stay of discovery is appropriate given the limited scope of the
27 underlying motion practice, cf. Tradebay, LLC v. eBay, Inc., 278 F.R.D. 597, 602 (D. Nev. 2011)
(“the pending motion must be potentially dispositive of the entire case or at least dispositive on
28 the issue on which discovery is sought”).
