ORDER DENYING DEFENDANT'S MOTION TO SHORTEN TIME; EXTENDING FILING DEADLINE AND CONTINUING HEARING ON CROSS-MOTIONS FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT
Re: Dkt. No. 54
MAXINE M. CHESNEY, District Judge.
Before the Court is defendant Charlton H. Bonham's "Motion to Shorten Time and Modify Briefing Schedule," filed December 18, 2018, pursuant to Civil Local Rule 6-3, by which said defendant, in his official capacity as Director of the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, seeks an order permitting his "Motion to Stay the Litigation," likewise filed December 18, 2018, to be briefed and heard on shortened time, and extending from January 14, 2019, to January 22, 2019, the filing deadline for defendant's reply in support of his cross-motion for summary judgment.1 Plaintiff Center for Biological Diversity has filed opposition to the request for an order shortening time on the Motion to Stay, but has agreed to the requested extension of briefing as to the motion for summary judgment.2
Having read and considered the papers filed in support of and in opposition to the motion, the Court finds defendant has not shown good cause for an order shortening time.
Accordingly, the Motion to Shorten Time is hereby DENIED, the Motion to Stay shall be heard on January 25, 2019, see Civil L.R. 7-2(a),3 and the filing deadline for defendant's and intervenor-defendants' replies in support of their respective cross-motions for summary judgment is hereby EXTENDED from January 14, 2019, to January 22, 2019.
In light of the above, the hearing on the parties' cross-motions for summary judgment is hereby CONTINUED from February 8, 2019, to February 22, 2019.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
