“Meiling Defendants”), that the current due dates for Plaintiffs to file Responses to the Meiling
Defendants’ Bill of Costs and Motion for Attorney Fees of August 17, 2020 and August 18, 2020,
respectively, be extended an additional thirteen (13) and fourteen (14) days respectively, up to and
including Tuesday, September 1, 2020. This is the first request to extend either due date.

13

Plaintiffs’ counsel represent that good cause exists to extend these deadlines under LR IA

14

6.1 because counsel for Plaintiffs have mandatory court hearings on August 17 and 18 in cases

15

pending in California and Arizona that cannot be extended, and California counsel is also

16

undergoing Covid testing on August 18, 2020 as the result of recent exposure to the virus that may

17

require a quarantine which will make meeting the deadlines set forth herein very difficult, if not

18

impossible. Plaintiffs’ counsel therefore submit that litigation of this matter will thus be best

19

served by the proposed extensions.
