On April 23, 2024, the court granted the parties’ stipulated motion to extend
(1) the discovery deadline for the limited purpose of conducting the depositions of Harley
Franco and Mathew Godden and (2) the dispositive motions deadline. (4/23/24 Order
(Dkt. # 52); see Stip. Mot. (Dkt. # 51).) The court did not, however, extend the noting
date for dispositive motions, which was June 14, 2024, under the version of this District’s
Local Civil Rules that was in effect at the time. (See 4/23/24 Order at 2 (citing Local
