ORDER GRANTING STIPULATION TO EXTEND TIME FOR DEFENDANTS TO RESPOND TO COMPLAINT
(SECOND REQUEST)
Defendants Tahoe Regional Planning Agency (“TRPA”), Glenbrook Homeowners Association (“GHOA”) and Plaintiffs David R. Dobbins and Sharon L. Dobbins (“Dobbins”), by and through their attorneys, hereby agree, stipulate, and respectfully request that the Court extend the deadline for Defendants TRPA and GHOA until and including January 27, 2023, to respond to Dobbins Complaint, an approximate 45-day extension for the filing deadline for TRPA's responsive pleading.
This is TRPA's first and GHOA's second request for an extension of time. In support of the request for Order, the counsel for the parties stipulate as follows:
1. This action was commenced in Nevada's Ninth Judicial District Court as Case No. 2022-CV-00170.
2. Defendant TRPA was served with a Summons and Complaint by Plaintiff on October 24, 2022.
3. TRPA and Plaintiffs' counsel agreed to a total of 51 days from the date of TRPA counsel's signature on the Acknowledgement of Service, for TRPA to file a responsive pleading, which date was December 13, 2022.
4. This deadline was agreed upon by both parties before removal of this matter to the U.S. District Court which is why a Stipulation and Proposed order has not been previously filed.
5. Since removal of this matter, parties have been in substantive negotiations and discussions towards a compromise of all claims in this litigation against all defendants. In order to continue productive negotiations and allow time to obtain approval by the necessary parties and boards, the parties agree the parties' resources should be directed towards these discussions.
6. This court has granted GHOA an extension to file a responsive pleading to December 16, 2022.
7. Based on the foregoing, the undersigned counsel, having previously agreed to extend that date an additional 45 days, hereby make a request, that the Court approve this agreement between counsel to extend the deadline for Defendants TRPA and GHOA to file their responsive pleading on or before January 27, 2023.
This stipulation is entered into good faith and not for the purpose of delay. There has been one previous request for extension of time. This stipulation extends time so that the parties can focus on resolution.
ORDER
IT IS SO ORDERED.
