Case No.: 2:13-CV-02276-WBS-AC 

[PROPOSED] STIPULATION TO 

MODIFY SCHEDULING ORDER TO 

EXTEND DISCOVERY COMPLETION 

DEADLINES 

 All parties to this lawsuit, by and through their respective attorneys, stipulate and agree to 

request that this court modify the existing scheduling order issued by this court on January 29, 

2015 to extend the time to complete discovery until April 27, 2015. This joint request is based 

on the following:

1. On January 26, 2015, the parties herein filed a stipulation and proposed order to extend 

pretrial deadlines and requested that the court refer this case to a settlement conference with 

Magistrate Judge Delaney. The reason for the request was to allow the parties to conduct a 

settlement conference with Judge Delaney for a date in March 2015, before the expert disclosure 

deadline, and to allow the parties an additional two weeks to complete discovery if necessary, 

after the parties attended the settlement conference. 

2. On January 29, 2015, the court issued an order setting a discovery deadline of March 27, 

2015, expert disclosure May 18, 2015, completion of expert discovery by June 8, 2015, and a last 

day to file dispositive motions on June 29, 2015. The Court also issued an order that the parties 

attend a settlement conference with Magistrate Judge Delaney on March 13, 2015 at 9:30 a.m. 

3. The parties at this time have been attempting to schedule various depositions, including 

the deposition of the plaintiff, the deposition of defendant Alvarez, the depositions of defendants 

employed by the West Sacramento Police Department, and some percipient witness depositions. 

However, the parties wish to avoid incurring costs of deposition and other discovery before the 

settlement conference. However, the current scheduling order requires discovery completion by 

March 27, 2015, therefore, if the matter is not resolved at the settlement conference, the parties 

will only have two weeks to complete discovery. The parties believe that by extending the 

discovery cut off another thirty (30) days, there will be adequate time to conduct the discovery if 

the case is not settled, in manner which is mutually convenient to the schedule of the attorneys 

herein, and without effecting any of the other pretrial dates scheduled in the case. 

Therefore, all parties request that the scheduling order of January 29, 2015 be amended to set 

the deadline to complete discovery be extended by thirty (30) days to April 27, 2015.
