Opinion
Case No. 2:10-cv-680-FtM-36SPC.
June 2, 2011
ORDER
This matter comes before the Court on Plaintiffs' Amended Second Motion to Extend Deadlines (Doc. #26) filed on May 17, 2011. Defendants filed a response in opposition (Doc. #28) on June 1, 2011. Therefore, the Motion is now ripe for review. Plaintiffs move the Court for an extension of the deadline to amend pleadings and add parties. The Court previously extended the deadline to May 30, 2011. (Doc. #18). As grounds for an extension of the deadline, Plaintiffs state that there are pending issues related to discovery that Plaintiffs' and Defendants' counsel are currently working through. Defendants oppose an extension of the deadline.
The Court finds that good cause has not been demonstrated to extend the deadline to amend pleadings and add parties in this case. This case was filed in October 2010 and Plaintiffs have had sufficient time to conduct discovery in order to determine whether any additional allegations or parties needed to be added. Plaintiffs may move to amend pleadings or add parties beyond the deadline for good cause.
Accordingly, it is now
ORDERED:
Plaintiffs' Amended Second Motion to Extend Deadlines (Doc. #26) is DENIED. DONE AND ORDERED at Fort Myers, Florida.
