STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER CHANGING DATES FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT OPPOSITION AND REPLY BRIEFS

JON S. TIGAR, District Judge.

STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER

Pursuant to Local Rules 6-1, 6-2, and 7-12, Plaintiff LivePerson, Inc. ("LivePerson") and Defendants [24]7.ai, Inc. and 24/7 Customer International Holdings ("collectively, "[24]7") (together, the "Parties"), subject to the Court's approval and Order, stipulate to slightly extend the opposition and reply brief deadlines for [24]7's motion for summary judgment, filed on July 13, 2018 in Case No. 3:17-cv-01268 ("the Trade Secret Matter") to allow the parties adequate time to address all of the issues in [24]7's motion. See De Vries Decl. ¶¶ 3, 6. Specifically, LivePerson anticipates filing several declarations in support of its opposition brief, and needs a few additional days to allow the declarants to finalize those declarations. Thus, the Parties, subject to the Court's approval and Order, stipulate to extend the deadline for LivePerson to file its summary judgment opposition brief, currently set for July 27, 2018, to August 1, 2018 and for [24]7 to correspondingly file its summary judgment reply brief, currently set for August 3, 2018, to August 13, 2018. These changes to the schedule will not affect any other deadlines in this action, because the summary judgment hearing date was recently set for October 25, 2018. See id. at ¶ 5; Dkt. 415.

This Court issued a Scheduling Order on July 26, 2017, and that order set the dispositive motion deadline for July 13, 2018 and the opposition and reply deadlines for July 27, 2018 and August 3, 2018, respectively. Dkt. 157. These deadlines have not been changed since. See De Vries Decl. ¶ 4; Dkts. 386, 415. In order to allow LivePerson adequate time to fully respond to [24]7's summary judgment motion, including to finalize the supporting declarations, LivePerson requests extending the opposition deadline by five days and giving [24]7 a reciprocal extension on its reply brief. Further, the Court recently moved the hearing date on [24]7's motion for summary judgment to October 25, 2018, so even with the requested extension, the Court would still have over two months to consider the parties' complete briefing prior to the hearing. Dkt. 415. Thus, LivePerson raised these scheduling issues and this stipulation with counsel for [24]7, who indicated they would so stipulate. See id. at ¶ 6.

Pursuant to the stipulation, the Parties request that: 1) the deadline for LivePerson's summary judgment opposition brief be moved from July 27, 2018, to August 1, 2018; and 2) the deadline for [24]7's summary judgment reply brief be moved from August 3, 2018, to August 13, 2018.
