IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

TODD ASHKER and DANNY TROXELL,

Plaintiffs,

 v.

ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER, et al.,

Defendants. /

No. C 05-03286 CW (PR)

ORDER SETTING BRIEFING

SCHEDULE FOR DEFENDANTS'

MOTION FOR SUMMARY

JUDGMENT OR, IN THE

ALTERNATIVE, SUMMARY

ADJUDICATION

In its December 26, 2007 Order, the Court set a briefing

schedule requiring all dispositive motions to be filed within two

months of the order, and opposition briefs to be filed one month

thereafter. Subsequently, the Court issued a Scheduling Order on

February 8, 2008, setting June 1, 2008, as the last day to conduct

discovery and September 15, 2008, as the last day for Defendants to

file a summary judgment motion. The last day for Plaintiffs to

file their opposition to that motion was set thirty days

thereafter, on October 15, 2008.

On February 26, 2008, Defendants filed a motion for summary

judgment or, in the alternative, for summary adjudication. 

Plaintiffs have not filed an opposition. On March 26, 2008,

defense counsel filed a declaration in lieu of reply, raising a

dispute between the parties concerning the deadline for Plaintiffs

to file an opposition to the motion.

Defense counsel has submitted correspondence indicating that

Plaintiffs intend to submit their opposition to Defendants’ motion

by October 15, 2008, pursuant to the February 8, 2008 Scheduling

Order. Kenny Suppl. Decl. Ex. C. Defendants contend that

Plaintiffs’ opposition is due thirty days after the motion was

filed, pursuant to the December 26, 2007 Order. 

Because Plaintiffs have renewed their motions to compel

answers to written deposition questions and production of documents

before Magistrate Judge Larson, and contend that they seek

discovery relevant to the summary judgment motion on their

remaining claims, the Court will allow Plaintiffs to file their

opposition to the motion for summary judgment after a ruling on the

discovery motions.

It is hereby ordered that Plaintiffs shall file an opposition

to Defendants' motion for summary judgment/summary adjudication no

later than ninety days after the magistrate judge enters an order

deciding the merits of Plaintiffs’ motions to compel. Defendants

may file a reply no later than two weeks thereafter, on which date

the matter will be taken under submission. No oral argument or

further briefing on Defendants’ motion will be permitted absent

further order of the Court. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: 4/18/08
