Order Lifting Stay [ECF No. 33]
JENNIFER A. DORSEY, District Judge.
Good cause appearing, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the motion to lift stay [ECF No. 33] is GRANTED IN PART, in that THE STAY IS LIFTED, but some of the other details and deadlines requested by the motion are denied or revised. Instead, IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the parties have the following deadlines and obligations to move this case forward:
Meet & Confer:
The parties have until November 16, 2018, to meet and confer as defined by Local Rule IA 1-3(f) regarding (1) the status of discovery (2) what viable claims and defenses remain in the case in light of recent decisions from the Supreme Court of Nevada, and (3) the issues that the parties intend to raise in any dispositive motion that the parties anticipate filing within the next 90 days. A party representative must attend the meet and confer, either in person or by telephone. Requests to be excused from any aspect of this meet-and-confer requirement will be denied absent extraordinary circumstances.
Discovery:
Discovery was scheduled to expire 12 days after the stay was entered, and no motion to extend the discovery cutoff was pending.1 If any party desires to conduct additional discovery, that party must file a motion to reopen discovery that complies with Local Rule 26-4 and takes into account the fact that the 21-days-before-expiration deadline had expired before the stay was entered in this case.
Dispositive motions:
Absent the reopening of discovery, dispositive motions must be filed by November 30, 2018, and be accompanied by a declaration by the movant's counsel that sets forth the details of the meet-and-confer in compliance with LR IA 1-3(f)(2) and certifies that, despite good-faith efforts, the issues raised in the motion could not be resolved. The court may summarily deny any motion that fails to comply with this requirement.
Proposed Joint Pretrial Order:
Absent the reopening of discovery, the parties have until December 28, 2018, to discuss settlement and prepare and file their Proposed Joint Pretrial Order in compliance with LR 16-3(b). The filing of a timely motion for summary judgment will stay this deadline.
