sf-3584186

Pursuant to Civil Local Rule 144, Plaintiffs Doris Ray Knox, Jerry Wayne Knox, and 

Jeremy Edward Moore (“Plaintiffs”) and Defendants City of Fresno, Edward Christopher 

Louchren, and Douglas Edward Cox (“Defendants”) (collectively, “the parties”) by and through 

their respective counsel, stipulate and request an order modifying the case schedule to permit 

additional time to conduct expert discovery. This request is supported by the Declaration of 

Arturo J. González, lead trial counsel for Plaintiffs. 

WHEREAS, the April 29, 2015 Scheduling Order (Dkt. No. 32) (“Scheduling Order”) sets 

the following deadlines:

Expert disclosure cutoff: August 28, 2015;

Expert rebuttal disclosure cutoff: September 25, 2015;

Expert discovery cutoff: October 30, 2015;

Non-dispositive motion filing deadline: November 20, 2015; and

Dispositive motion filing deadline: January 19, 2016.

WHEREAS, pursuant to Civil Local Rule 144, the parties may file a stipulation requesting 

an order extending time to the case schedule;

WHEREAS, the parties are not seeking any modification of other deadlines;

WHEREAS, the parties have resolved their limited discovery disputes with informal 

telephone conferences with retired Magistrate Judge Gary S. Austin, have only two pending 

discovery issues to discuss and resolve, and are willing to address those two matters informally 

with Magistrate Judge Erica P. Grosjean, to whom this matter is now assigned for all purposes;

WHEREAS, Defendants are in the process of completing their document production and, 

due to defense counsel’s trial schedule, percipient depositions were only completed last week,

WHEREAS, Plaintiffs do not intend to file any dispositive motions, and the proposed 

schedule below allows ample time to consider any dispositive motion Defendants may file;

NOW THEREFORE, the Parties hereby stipulate and request that the Scheduling Order be 

modified as follows:

Time for expert disclosure cutoff be moved to November 9, 2015;
