STIPULATION AND ORDER MODIFYING BRIEFING SCHEDULE RE MHCB CONSTRUCTION 

On October 8, 2019, the Court ordered the parties to file briefing regarding 

questions raised by Plaintiffs at the September 13, 2019 hearing regarding MHCB 

construction, access, capacity, and transfer compliance, and regarding whether an unmet 

bed need study for the MHCB level of care should be conducted. See ECF No. 6312. The 

briefing schedule set by the October 8, 2019 Order requires opening briefs to be filed on 

November 29, 2019, which is an office holiday for both Plaintiffs’ counsel and 

Defendants’ counsel. Moreover, the due date for responsive briefs is December 6, 2019, 

the same date as the oral argument in the Ninth Circuit for Defendants’ appeal of the 

Court’s July 3, 2018 Order regarding telepsychiatry. See ECF No. 5850. Lisa Ells, who 

will be arguing for Plaintiffs in that appeal, is also one of the attorneys who will be 

primarily responsible for the responsive brief regarding MHCBs. The parties therefore 

request an alternative briefing schedule to the one the Court set on October 8, 2019, with 

opening briefs to be filed on November 27, 2019, and responsive briefs to be filed on 

December 9, 2019.
