ORDER GRANTING IN PART AND

DENYING IN PART PLAINTIFF’S

MOTION TO ENLARGE TIME

(Docket Nos. 30, 34)

Before the Court is plaintiff’s “Motion to Enlarge Time,” filed June 13, 2006, by which

motion plaintiff seeks an extension of the June 1, 2006 deadline to serve defendant Lt. Col.

Edward L. Melton (“Melton”), as well as a 60-day extension of the November 3, 2006

discovery cutoff. Pursuant to Rule 6(e) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and Civil

Local Rule 6-3, any opposition to the motion was due no later than June 21, 2006. To date,

no opposition has been filed.

Plaintiff states she has been unable to serve defendant Melton because she does

not have his address, and anticipates seeking discovery of such from defendant Harvey. 

Although plaintiff has shown good cause for an extension of the deadline to serve

defendant Melton, she has not shown good cause for an extension of the discovery cutoff. 

Plaintiff sets forth no reason why, once Melton is served, she cannot obtain discovery from
