UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

ALLEN C. HASSAN, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

CORELOGIC CREDCO, et al., 

Defendants. 

No. 2:13-cv-1942-KJM-KJN 

ORDER 

On February 26, 2015, defendant Corelogic Credco filed a motion to modify the 

court’s scheduling order to allow an additional 120 days from the then-current discovery cut-off 

to complete discovery. ECF No. 79. No party opposed the motion, see Statements of Non-opp’n, 

ECF Nos. 84, 85, and it was granted by Minute Order on March 23, 2015, ECF No. 92. 

On March 5, 2015, the assigned magistrate judge issued an order and findings and 

recommendations recommending this action be dismissed with prejudice. ECF No. 83. Plaintiff 

Allen Hassan has filed objections. ECF No. 87. The findings and recommendations remain 

pending. 

In its status (pretrial scheduling) order, the court ordered the parties to participate 

in a Volunteer Dispute Resolution Panel (VDRP) mediation session in March 2015. Order Nov. 

20, 2014, at 8, ECF No. 67. The parties have filed a stipulated joint request to vacate the

mediation date and modify the court’s scheduling order to remove the requirement of mediation 

in March 2015. ECF No. 93. The parties agree participation in mediation would prove 

unproductive given the pending findings and recommendations, among other reasons. 

A scheduling order may be modified upon showing of good cause. See Fed. R. 

Civ. P. 16(b); Johnson v. Mammoth Recreations, Inc., 975 F.2d 604 (9th Cir. 1992). Here, the 

parties have shown good cause for a modification. The mediation date is VACATED and the 

court’s status (pretrial scheduling) order MODIFIED to withdraw reference of this case to the 

court’s VDRP. 

IT IS SO ORDERED. 

DATED: March 25, 2016.
