5. On May 13, 2016, Defendants filed their Motion to Dismiss Plaintiff’s FAC. 

6. On June 20, 2016, the Court issued its Order granting, in part, and denying in all other 

respects Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss. 

7. On June 24, 2016, the Court, per stipulation, continued the initial Status (Pretrial 

Scheduling) Conference from July 18, 2016 to September 26, 2016. The Parties’ deadline to confer
