JOSE, CA 95113

Plaintiff and Defendants, by and through their respective counsels, stipulate and request 

that the court change the times in the Court’s Case Management Order (Docket No. 20) filed on 

August 8, 2014, as described below. The parties have not requested a modification of the original 

Case Management Order before. 

Pursuant to Local Rule 6-2, this request is accompanied by the declaration of attorney Lori 

Costanzo, counsel for Plaintiff. As set forth more specifically in the declaration, in light of the 

Plaintiff just having filed her Second Amended Complaint on December 26, 2014, Defendants not 

yet having filed an Answer or other responsive pleading, Plaintiff’s deposition set for January 5, 

2015, as well as the need for Plaintiff to file a motion to obtain personnel files of each officer 

before taking each officer’s deposition, the parties wish to have more time to complete discovery. 

Accordingly, Plaintiff – in agreement with Defendants – is requesting a six month 

continuance of the respective case management dates as follows:

Current Date Proposed Date

Fact Discovery Cut-Off February 6, 2015 August 6, 2015

Designation of Opening March 6, 2015 September 4, 2015

Experts w/Reports

Designation of Rebuttal March 20, 2015 September 21, 2015
