Case No.: 2:15-cv-1681-CMK 

STIPULATION AND ORDER TO 

EXTEND BRIEFING SCHEDULE 

 IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED by the parties, through their undersigned attorneys, to 

extend Defendant’s time to file her motion for summary judgment by 35 days to June 20, 2016, 

and that all other scheduling dates set forth in the Court’s Case Management Order shall be 

extended accordingly. This is Defendant’s first request for an extension of time in this matter. 

 There is good cause for this extension because counsel for Defendant is responsible for 

drafting various pleadings before the district courts within the Ninth Circuit, negotiating or 

litigating attorney fee matters pursuant to the Equal Access to Justice Act, conducting discovery 

and drafting substantive pleadings in personnel-related litigation pending before the Equal
