Stip. And Order Extending Deadline to Meet and Confer (2:90-cv-00520 KJM-DB (PC)) 

On February 15, 2022, the Court ordered the parties to meet and confer for thirty days 

concerning disputes over any remaining departures that had been reported in the parties’ monthly 

joint report addressing COVID-19 departures from the Program Guide. (ECF No. 7462.) In 

addition, the Court ordered the parties to seek leave to file a motion concerning any disputes that 

remained unresolved within fourteen (14) days of the expiration of the thirty-day meet and confer 

period. (Id.) Subsequently, the parties stipulated to extend the thirty-day deadline imposed by 

the February 15 order to April 18, 2022, which was approved by this Court. (ECF No. 7503.) 

The 14-day period to seek leave to file a motion concerning any outstanding disputes expires 

today, May 2, 2022. The parties have met and conferred but require additional time to resolve 

concerns regarding policies that provide for COVID-19 departures from the Program Guide. 

Accordingly, the parties jointly request that the Court extend the deadline to meet and 

confer by twenty-one (21) days to May 23, 2022. 

IT IS SO STIPULATED.
