Chambers Rules. (Section III.C.1.) The Joint Motion lacks “a declaration from counsel 

of record detailing the steps taken to comply with the dates and deadlines set in the order, 

the specific reasons why deadlines cannot be met, and well as the specific discovery that 

has been conducted, and what specific discovery remains outstanding.” (Id.) The Joint 

Motion itself also does not include this information, resulting in a failure to show good

why they have not or cannot comply with the Scheduling Order. Additionally, the parties 

are seeking extensions to complete fact discovery, a deadline that past more than a month

or must be done within a specified time, the court may, for good cause, extend time: . . . 

on motion made after the time has expired if the party failed to act because of excusable 

neglect.” (emphasis added)). For these reasons, the Joint Motion is DENIED without 

prejudice.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
