COMPASS GROUP USA, INC.,

ORDER GRANTING IN PART
AND DENYING IN PART
STIPULATED MOTION TO
CONTINUE THE TRIAL DATE

Defendant.

15

Before the court is the parties’ stipulated motion to continue the trial for

16

approximately six months. (Stip. Mot. (Dkt. # 21).) The parties’ state that they need a

17

new trial date due to Plaintiff Karen Akre’s recent surgery that prevents her from

18

undergoing a vocational analysis. (Id. at 1.) The court finds good cause to continue the

19

trial date, but cannot accommodate the November 12, 2019, date that the parties request.

20

(See id. at 2.) Accordingly, the court GRANTS the parties’ motion for a new trial date,

21

but DENIES their request for a November 12, 2019, trial date. Instead, the court

22

CONTINUES the trial date to October 28, 2019. The court will separately issue an

ORDER - 1

1

amended scheduling order based on the new trial date for those case deadlines that have

2

not already expired. (See Sched. Ord. (Dkt. # 16).)

3

Dated this 23rd day of October, 2018.
