Having read and considered the Stipulation and Joint Request to Modify Scheduling Order 

(Stipulation) submitted by Plaintiffs Lionel Harper and Daniel Sinclair (Plaintiffs) and Defendant 

Charter Communications, LLC (Charter) (collectively, the Parties), the Court finds GOOD CAUSE to 

modify the Status Pretrial Scheduling) Order, Dkts. 34, 52, 60, 70, 83, 92, 104, 159, 213, 268, 292, 

and 352, and hereby GRANTS the Stipulation and Joint Request as follows: 

WHEREAS, since the Court issued the most recent modified Scheduling Order on January 4, 

2024, Dkt. 352, the Parties have met and conferred telephonically and in writing numerous times 

regarding various discovery and other matters, briefed Plaintiffs’ Motion to Compel (Dkt. 354) and 

Plaintiffs’ Motion for Discovery Sanctions (Dkt. 355), and participated in a lengthy motions hearing 

before Magistrate Judge Cota on February 14, 2024.

WHEREAS, Magistrate Judge Cota has ordered (written order to follow) Charter to serve 

supplemental discovery responses by March 20, 2024, and to collect and produce all documents and 

electronically stored information responsive to certain discovery requests on a rolling basis to be 

completed by March 20, 2024.

WHEREAS, the Parties expect to reach another stipulation with respect to other discovery 

matters in the near future, and expect to set an agreed production deadline for other responsive 

documents and electronically stored information for March 20, 2024.

WHEREAS, the Parties are continuing to meet and confer in good faith regarding discovery 

and other matters and regarding an appropriate case schedule going forward, taking into account 

Magistrate Judge Cota’s order, the Parties’ other anticipated stipulation, the time and resources 

required for Charter to complete its collection and production of responsive documents and 

electronically stored information, the time needed to prepare and complete class certification briefing 

and other briefing in this Court and before the Ninth Circuit, and the time needed to complete fact and 

expert discovery.

WHEREAS, the Parties agree on the modified case schedule set forth below, and believe good 

cause exists for the Court to issue a modified Scheduling Order adopting this proposed case schedule.
