RANDY BLANKENCHIP and 

SUSAN BLANKENCHI, 

Plaintiffs, 

v. 

CITIMORTGAGE, INC., et al., 

Defendants. 

No. 2:14-cv-02309 WBS-AC 

ORDER

The parties have submitted a Stipulation (Docket No. 

61) to continue the hearing on defendants’ Motion for Summary 

Judgment (Docket No. 44) sixty days from the currently set date 

of April 18, 2016. The court cannot allow a dispositive motion 

to remain docketed for that length of time without a hearing.

opposition to defendants’ motion within the time allotted. The 

court therefore denies defendants’ motion for partial summary 

judgment, pursuant to Rule 56(d)(1), without prejudice to 

defendants’ right to renew the motion after discovery has been 

completed. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
