Attorneys for Plaintiffs

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

BAY AREA PAINTERS AND TAPERS

PENSION TRUST FUND, et al.,

Plaintiffs,

v.

VENTURA FINISHING SYSTEMS, a 

California Corporation, 

Defendant.

Case No.: C14-03364 - HSG

REQUEST FOR EXTENSION OF TIME 

TO FILE PLAINTIFFS’ MOTION FOR 

DEFAULT JUDGMENT; ORDER 

THEREON

Current Deadline: April 1, 2015

Proposed Deadline: April 15, 2015

Judge: Hon. Haywood S. Gilliam

Courtroom: 15 – 18th Floor

TO THE COURT:

Plaintiffs Bay Area Painters and Tapers Pension Trust Fund, et al. (“Plaintiffs”), by and 

through their counsel, hereby respectfully request a two-week extension of time by which to file 

Plaintiffs’ Motion for Default Judgment. GOOD CAUSE exists to grant the extension for the 

following reasons:

1. As the Court records reflect, this matter came on for hearing for a scheduled Case 

Management Conference before the Honorable Haywood S. Gilliam on March 18, 2015 in the 

above-captioned Court. [Dkt. No. 38]. Adrian L. Canzoneri, Esq. appeared on behalf of Plaintiffs. 

Justine Kastan, Esq., former counsel for Defendant, also appeared. There was no appearance by 

Defendant.

2. At the March 18, 2015 Case Management Conference, the Court ordered Plaintiffs 

to file their Motion for Default Judgment by April 1, 2015. [Id.].

3. However, on Monday, March 23, 2015, presumably after being advised by its 

former counsel, Defendant contacted Plaintiffs’ counsel to discuss the amounts owed to Plaintiffs, 

in addition to the documents needed by Plaintiffs to complete the audit of Defendant’s payroll 

records. Defendant indicated his willingness to attempt to resolve this matter without the need for 

further litigation. Plaintiffs’ counsel requested that Defendant submit the necessary additional 

documents as soon as possible so that the complete and final amounts owed to Plaintiffs could be 

ascertained. Accordingly, Plaintiffs are requesting the two-week extension herein. 

4. Upon review of the Honorable Judge Gilliam’s law and motion calendar and 

scheduling notes, the first available hearing date for Plaintiffs’ Motion for Default Judgment is 

June 4, 2015. Thus, neither the Court nor the parties to this matter will be significantly affected by 

the requested two-week extension. 

5. As the parties are now currently engaged in discussions in an attempt to resolve this 

matter without the need for further litigation, in the interest of judicial economy and efficiency, as 

well as the preservation of the Court’s time and resources, Plaintiffs’ respectfully request that the 

deadline to file the Motion for Default Judgment, currently set for April 1, 2015, be extended two 

weeks, up to and including April 15, 2015. 

I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the United States of America that the 

foregoing is true of my own knowledge and if called upon I could and would testify competently 

thereto.

Executed this 25th day of March 2015, at San Francisco, California. 

/S/

Adrian L. Canzoneri

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Based on the foregoing, and GOOD CAUSE APPEARING, the deadline for Plaintiffs to 

file their Motion for Default Judgment shall be extended by a period of two weeks, up to and 

including April 15, 2015.
