 Plaintiffs THOMAS WILLIAMS and CARLOS WILLIAMS (“Plaintiffs”) and Defendants 

COUNTY OF SACRAMENTO, CITY OF RANCHO CORDOVA, NATHAN DANIEL, JOSEPH 

ZALEC, AND DEREK HUTCHINS, (collectively “Defendants”), by and through their (“Parties”) 

counsel of record, hereby stipulate and request that the Court continue discovery and the pre-trial deadlines 

in this matter. Good cause exists for the requested continuance pursuant to Federal Rules of Civil 

Procedure Rule 16(d) based upon the following: 

 1. On July 15, 2021, this Court consolidated the above-referenced cases with respect to 

discovery only. 

 2. On October 5, 2021, in Case No. 2:20-cv-00598-TLN-KJN, this Court issued an Amended 

Pre-Trial Scheduling Order setting forth all pre-trial deadlines. The Court entered the same Order on 

October 26, 2021 in Case No. 2:19-cv-02345-TLN-KJN. 

 3. The Parties seek an extension of all pre-trial deadlines for the following reasons: (1) several 

discovery disputes have recently arisen which may require court intervention, one of which is now pending 

before the Court [ECF No. 26]; (2) Defendants have served subpoenas for medical records, some of which 

are still outstanding; (3) the Parties intend to conduct additional discovery and at least six (6) additional 

depositions in this case and need additional time for scheduling.
