UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

----oo0oo----

GREGORY RITTENHOUSE and LINDA

GAGE, individually and on behalf 

of all others similar situated,

Plaintiffs,

v.

BLENDJET, INC.,

Defendant.

No. 2:23-cv-01906 WBS DB

ORDER

----oo0oo----

After defendant moved to dismiss and plaintiffs filed 

an amended complaint, defendant withdrew its initial motion to 

dismiss and moved to dismiss the amended complaint. Plaintiffs 

now request ex parte an extension of time to file their 

opposition to the motion. (Docket No. 31.) Defendant does not 

oppose an extension of time to September 4, 2024, but does oppose 

plaintiffs’ request for an extension to September 9, 2024, 

because the extension of time may leave defense counsel with 

insufficient time to file defendant’s reply given defense

counsel’s travel plans and other commitments. (Docket No. 32.) 

The court will grant the request while noting that 

defendant is free to request an extension of time for its reply

and/or request to move the hearing date for the motion to 

dismiss, should the need arise. However, the court admonishes 

the parties to resolve these routine matters via stipulation 

whenever possible, without requiring the court to resolve trivial 

disputes.

It is therefore ORDERED that plaintiffs’ request for an 

extension of time (Docket No. 31) be, and the same hereby is 

GRANTED. Plaintiffs shall file their opposition to the motion to 

dismiss by September 9, 2024.

Dated: August 16, 2024
