ORDER GRANTING IN PART JOINT ADMINISTRATIVE MOTION TO CONTINUE TO DATE FOR 

HEARING AND ENLARGE THE TIME FOR BRIEFING ON HBML’S MOTION TO DISMISS PURSUANT TO 

LOCAL RULE 6-3 CASE NO.: 17-CV-00308-WHO

I have read and considered Defendants, Counterclaimants and Cross-claimants Swagelok 

Company and Whitney Research Tool Co., Defendant, Counterclaimant and Cross-claimant 

Catherine Lennon Lozick, and Plaintiffs The Successor Agency to the Former Emeryville 

Redevelopment Agency and the City of Emeryville (collectively “Moving Parties”) 

Administrative Motion to Continue the Date for Hearing and Enlarge the Time for Briefing for a 

Period of 120 days with respect to Defendant and Cross-Defendant Hanson Building Materials 

Limited’s (“HBML”) Motion to Dismiss for Lack of Personal Jurisdiction (Dkt. No. 82), pursuant 

to Local Rule 6-3 (“Motion to Enlarge”), and the response by defendant and cross-defendant 

Hanson Building Materials Limited. The moving papers do not specify the four months’ worth of 

preparation that the moving parties claim was needed before propounding discovery, nor do they

specify how they intend to use the four months of enlarged time that they seek. However, it 

appears that the discovery has been voluminous and some additional time is needed to crystallize 

the issues. Finding good cause, I ORDER that:

1. The Motion to Enlarge is granted in part; and

2. The hearing on HBML’s Motion to Dismiss for Lack of Personal Jurisdiction is 

continued from July 11, 2018 to September 12, 2018, at 2:00 p.m. in Courtroom 2.

3. The deadlines for completion of the jurisdictional discovery and all remaining 

briefing in conjunction with HBML’s Motion to Dismiss for Lack of Personal Jurisdiction are 

continued in accordance with the new hearing date.

4. The Further Case Management Conference is continued from July 11, 2018 at 2:00 

p.m. to September 12, 2018 at 2:00 p.m. in Courtroom 2. The joint case management conference 

statement shall be due by September 5, 2018.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Date: May 15, 2018 _______________________________________
