UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

JUAN TOWLE, on behalf of himself and all 

other aggrieved non-exempt employees, 

Plaintiff,

vs. 

CUMMINS PACIFIC, LLC, et al., 

Defendants.

 CASE NO. 18cv83-LAB (JLB) 

ORDER GRANTING CONTINUANCE 

 

 Cummins Pacific asks to continue the hearing date on Juan Towle’s motion for class 

certification set for August 6, 2018. Pacific says it needs more time for depositions, rebutting 

expert opinions, and it’s only fair since the Court granted Towle a six-week continuance to 

file his motion. Towle didn’t offer any compelling reasons why an extension would unfairly 

prejudice him. Pacific’s shown good cause. The continuance is granted. Fed. R. Civ. P. 6(b). 

 The hearing is moved to the next available date: September 17, 2018 at 11:30 am. 

The opposition is due September 3, and the reply is due September 10. Towle’s opposition 

also asked for more time to depose Pacific’s experts, but didn’t explain who he wanted to 

depose, or why he needed more time. The Court doesn’t foresee a problem with that request 

as long as it doesn’t affect the new briefing schedule. Towle should confer with Pacific and 

attempt to resolve the issue informally. If Pacific disagrees, then he should file a motion 

explaining his specific request in greater detail. 

IT IS SO ORDERED. 

Dated: July 16, 2018
