MOTION FOR LEAVE TO CONTINUE INITIAL CASE MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE

SUPPORTING FACTS

Plaintiff’s counsel has recently discovered that he is mandated to appear at another 

court hearing in San Jose on the 12th of May at 1:30 p.m. Upon making this discovery of 

conflicting schedules, Plaintiff’s counsel has attempted to meet and confer with the opposing 

counsel in this case to stipulate to having the ICMC continued the next available date. The 

opposing counsel has informed the Plaintiff’s counsel that he has no problem with the CMC 

being continued. 

DISCUSSION

L.R. 16-2(d), entitled, “Relief from Case Management Schedule,” reads, in part, as 

follows: 

By serving and filing a motion with the assigned judge pursuant to Civil L.R. 7, a 

party, ... may seek relief from an obligation imposed by FRCivP 16 or 26 or the 

Order Setting Initial Case Management Conference. The motion must: 

(1) Describe the circumstances which support the request; 

(2) Affirm that counsel for the moving party has conferred with all other 

counsel to reach agreement about the matter and, for each other party, 

report whether that party supports or opposes the request for relief; 

(3) Be accompanied by proposed revised case management schedule... (emphasis added).

Here, in the instant case, Plaintiff’s counsel has described that there is a scheduling conflict 

which would warrant the continuance of the CMC in this case. Further, he has met and conferred 

with opposing counsel who has no problem with the proposed continuance and the Plaintiff’s 

counsel has now proposed that the CMC be continued to the next available date that the court 

deems appropriate.
