DALE A. DROZD, District Judge.
At the January 19, 2016, status conference in the above-referenced matter a hearing date was set for March 28, 2016, for the Court to determine whether an evidentiary hearing will be necessary on the Defendant Chavez' motion to suppress evidence. The parties previously submitted briefs, but the Court permitted parties to submit supplemental briefing as follows: Chavez supplemental brief was due February 9, 2016, the Government's supplemental opposition is due one week later on February 16, 2016, and any reply brief is due February 23, 2016.
Chavez's supplemental brief, filed February 9, 2016, raises new issues requiring further factual inquiry by the Government. However, the current briefing schedule, which requires the opposition to be filed within one week after the supplemental motion, does not allow sufficient time for the government to adequately respond to these issues.
Consequently, the parties agree that Government should be permitted to file its opposition by February 23, 2016, and any reply brief by Chavez may be filed by March 8, 2016. The parties believe that the extension of these filing dates will not require the Court to move the March 28, 2016 hearing date.
Based on the stipulation of counsel and for good cause, the Government's supplemental opposition shall be filed by February 23, 2016, and that any reply brief by Chavez shall be filed by March 1, 2016
