18
This matter, involving claims of PACA violations and cross claims of breach of contract, was
filed on April 26, 2010. (Doc. 1)
19
On September 28, 2011, the Court granted the parties’ request to stay the matter to allow for
20
completion of binding arbitration. (Doc. 31) However, the Court granted the stay only for 120 days. Id.
21
On October 28, 2011, the parties filed their joint status report and indicated that they had agreed
22
that arbitration would occur in April 2012. (Doc. 32) In response, the Court issued a minute order
23
reminding the parties that the stay was in effect only for 120 days and urged counsel “to make renewed
24
efforts to submit to arbitration as expeditiously as possible.” (Doc. 33)
25
On November 28, 2011, the parties filed their joint status report and reported that the arbitration
26
would occur during the week of April 16, 2012. (Doc. 34) They request that the stay be extended to June
27
1, 2012. Id. However, they fail to provide any information as to why they were unable to schedule the
28
arbitration in a more expedient fashion or why the stay needs to be in place for about 45 days after the
1
1
arbitration date. As a result, the Court cannot find good cause to extend the stay at this time. As a result,
2
the request is DENIED.
