UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

On April 2, 2015, the parties stipulated for Defendant to have a second extension of time to 

respond to Plaintiff’s opening brief. (Doc. 12.) The Scheduling Order permits a single thirty-day

extension by the stipulation of parties. (Doc. 3 at 4). Any further requests for an extension must be 

made via a motion by the party seeking to amend the briefing schedule, and supported by good cause. 

(Id.) Because the parties previously stipulated for an extension of time in this action, the Court 

construes the stipulation filed to be a motion by Defendant to amend the Scheduling Order. 

Defendant’s counsel requests an extension of fourteen days because she “was unexpectedly out 

of the office for a one-week medical leave” and “is currently considering the possible settlement of 

this matter without further action of the Court.” (Doc. 12 at 1.)
