UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA – FRESNO DIVISION

ROGELIO SANCHEZ, 

Plaintiff,

vs.

SPECTRUM BRANDS, INC.; HOME 

DEPOT U.S.A., INC.; and DOES 1 to 10, 

inclusive,

Defendants.

Case No. 1:20-cv-00365-ADA-EPG

ORDER GRANTING PLAINTIFF’S 

UNOPPOSED MOTION TO CONTINUE 

SETTLEMENT CONFERENCE 

(Doc. No. 85)

 

CONTINUED TO:

DECEMBER 8, 2023 at 10:00A.M.

On September 22, 2023, Plaintiff ROGELIO SANCHEZ (“Plaintiff”) filed a Motion to 

Continue Settlement Conference. (Doc. No. 85). Plaintiff requests the settlement conference 

scheduled for October 6, 2023 be continued on the grounds that: (1) Plaintiff’s counsel of record, 

Mr. H. Gavin Long, Esq., is currently engaged in a trial that will last approximately 6-7 weeks, and 

is therefore unavailable for the Settlement Conference on October 6, 2023; (2) all Parties have 

agreed to this continuance and are available on the two alternative dates provided by the Court; and 

(3) the Parties will not be prejudiced by this continuance because there is ample time for meaningful 

settlement discussions to take place in December before the Pretrial Conference in February. (Id.). 

On the Court’s own motion, and pursuant to Local Rule 230(g), the hearing scheduled for 

October 11, 2023 on Plaintiff’s Motion (Doc. No. 85) is VACATED as the Motion is unopposed.
