IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ALISON STIRM,

 Plaintiff,

 v.

UNITED STATES,

 Defendant.

CASE NO. 2:22-CV-01330-CKD

[PROPOSED] ORDER

JUDGE: Hon. Carolyn K. Delaney

Plaintiff Alison Stirm and defendant United States have submitted a joint request to continue the 

fact discovery deadline in the scheduling order by 60 days, with corresponding adjustments to all other 

deadlines. Good cause appearing, the request is GRANTED.

All parties in this case have consented to the jurisdiction of a United States Magistrate Judge for 

all purposes pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636. On December 15, 2022, the Court entered a scheduling order 

which set June 23, 2023, as the deadline for completion of non-expert discovery. See Dkt. 12 at 2. The 

parties represent that they have been diligently engaged in discovery since that time. No previous 

requests for modification of the scheduling order have been made.

According to the parties’ request, the depositions of plaintiff and her husband were scheduled to 

occur on May 16, 2023, in San Diego, California, where the plaintiff now resides. On May 9, 2023, 

plaintiff served supplemental disclosures pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(e) which listed 

a new health care provider who is likely to have relevant information and records on which plaintiff 

intends to rely with respect to plaintiff’s claimed damages. On May 10, 2023, plaintiff produced

additional documents that had been identified in the supplemental disclosures. Counsel for the United 

States promptly served a subpoena to obtain all relevant records regarding plaintiff from the newlyidentified health care provider. Because the records that will be produced in response to this subpoena 

relate to issues that are likely to arise during the depositions of plaintiff and her husband, those 

depositions had to be rescheduled to afford time to obtain the records from the newly-identified health 

care provider and to allow the United States time to review the records prior to conducting the 

depositions. The requested extension of time is needed for these reasons and to allow time to resolve 

any follow-up discovery issues. 

Accordingly, the Pretrial Scheduling Order issued on December 15, 2022 (Dkt. 12) is modified 

as follows. 

Non-expert discovery completion deadline: August 23, 2023

Expert disclosure deadline: October 25, 2023

Rebuttal expert disclosure deadline: November 30, 2023

Expert discovery completion deadline: December 29, 2023

Non-discovery law and motion deadline: February 23, 2024

All other portions of the Pretrial Scheduling Order (Dkt. 12) remain in effect.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
