Opinion
CASE NO. C11-5318-MAT.
October 6, 2011
ORDER GRANTING LIMITED EXTENSION OF TIME OF REMAINING BRIEFING SCHEDULE
Plaintiff filed the parties' first stipulation for extension of time (Dkt. 12), requesting a 42-day extension of the due date in which to file her opening brief. Having considered the stipulation, and the entire docket in the case, the court hereby GRANTS an extension of the briefing schedule, but declines to use the dates requested by plaintiff. The court will not typically grant extensions that are longer than approximately 30 days, and therefore grants a 30-day extension in this case, with the new deadlines as follows:
Plaintiff's Opening Brief: November 10, 2011 Defendant's Responsive Brief: December 8, 2011 Plaintiff's optional Reply Brief: December 22, 2011Plaintiff may file a second unopposed motion for extension if she needs additional time. However, the parties should note that a second extension of the Opening Brief would impact the ability of defendant to request an extension specifically extending the deadline for the responsive brief, and should plan accordingly.
