IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ROBERT FEIGER,

Plaintiff,

v.

MARLENE SMITH, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 1:14-cv-01920-DAD-EPG (PC)

ORDER GRANTING DEFENDANT 

NATALIE CLARK’S REQUEST FOR 

EXTENSION OF TIME TO SERVE 

INITIAL DISCLOSURES AND 

DENYING REQUEST TO CONTINUE

INITIAL SCHEDULING CONFERENCE

On January 16, 2017, Defendant Natalie Clark filed a request for a 30-day extension of time 

to provide Plaintiff with her initial disclosures, and a request to continue the Initial Scheduling 

Conference 30 days from its current date. (ECF No. 53). Defendant Clark asks for the extension 

and the continuance because Defendant Clark’s new counsel “has not had adequate time to confer 

with [Defendant] Clark and review all pertinent documents and information necessary in order to 

be able to prepare Initial Disclosures by the current deadline of January 17, 2017.”

The Court finds good cause to extend the initial disclosures deadline. The Court notes that, 

as it has granted Defendant Clark an additional 60 days to serve her initial disclosures on 

Plaintiff, the Court expects Defendant Clark to make meaningful initial disclosures.

needs to be continued. Therefore, the Court will not continue the Initial Scheduling Conference.

Accordingly, based on the foregoing, IT IS ORDERED that Defendant Clark is GRANTED

an extension of time of 30 days, through and including February 16, 2017, to serve her initial 

disclosures on Plaintiff. 

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Defendant Clark’s request to reschedule the Initial 

Scheduling Conference is DENIED.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
