ORDER GRANTING MOTION TO EXTEND DEADLINES
THIS MATTER is before the Court on Plaintiff State of New Mexico, ex rel. State
Engineer’s (“State”) Unopposed Motion to Extend Deadlines in Scheduling and Procedural
Order for Canjilon Subsection of Section 3 of the Rio Chama Stream System (Doc. 11657, filed
October 19, 2023) (“Motion to Extend”).
The Court set the deadline for disclosure of expert witnesses and accompanying reports
for October 24, 2023. See Scheduling and Procedural Order for Canjilon Subsection of Section 3
of the Rio Chama Stream System (Doc. 11653, filed 7/26/2023) (“Procedural Order”). The
Procedural Order also set deadlines for the rest of discovery, dispositive motions, and pretrial
activities. Id.
Plaintiff asks the Court to extend the October 24, 2023 deadline for the disclosure of
expert witnesses and accompanying reports to December 8, 2023. Plaintiff also asks the court to
extend the other deadlines set in the Procedural Order by forty-five (45) days. Plaintiff asserts
1
that “an extension of time for expert witness disclosures and other discovery would enable the
parties to refocus their efforts on the one remaining priority date issue” in this matter. Abelardo
E. Garcia and Geraldine E. Garcia, the defendants in this matter, do not oppose the Motion to
Extend. The Court finds good cause to grant the requested extensions.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that Plaintiff State of New Mexico, ex rel. State
Engineer’s Unopposed Motion to Extend Deadlines in Scheduling and Procedural Order for
Canjilon Subsection of Section 3 of the Rio Chama Stream System, Doc. 11657, filed October 19,
2023, is GRANTED. The October 24, 2023, deadline in the Procedural Order is reset for
December 8, 2023. All other deadlines stated in the Procedural Order for this matter are also
extended by forty-five days.
IT IS ALSO ORDERED that the Clerk mail a copy of this Order to:
Abeldardo E. Garcia and Geraldine E. Garcia
P.O. Box 447
Canjilon, NM 87515
