DISCOVERY THAT REMAINS TO BE COMPLETED. 15 The Parties are actively conducting discovery and have completed the majority of 16 the written discovery and depositions. However, the Parties are continuing to meet and confer 17 on outstanding discovery issues including, but not limited to (1) Plaintiffs’ deposition 18 subpoenas to Justice Court and Municipal Court and (2) Defendants’ deficient discovery 19 responses, 20 The Parties’ primary remaining discovery tasks include: (1) Plaintiffs have 21 subpoenaed records from the Las Vegas Municipal Court and Las Vegas Justice Court for 22 documents concerning Defendant’s misdemeanor citations and arrests during the BLM 23 Protests in 2020 and are in the process of obtaining records related to the same; (2) resolution 24 of meet and confer issues and motion practice if needed; (3) Plaintiffs’ deposition of 25 Defendant Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department’s FRCP 30(b)(6) designee(s); (4) 26 expert disclosures; (5) rebuttal reports; and (6) depositions of the experts. 27 28 24 1 III. 2 This is the thirteenth request for an extension of discovery deadlines in this matter. 3 The Parties request that the Discovery Plan and Scheduling Order deadlines be extended an 4 additional ninety (90) days so that the Parties may complete the tasks above and efficiently 5 manage expert disclosures. This involves waiting for deposition transcripts requiring 6 expert review and analysis. The Parties acknowledge that, pursuant to Local Rule 26-3, the Parties must 7 8 ATTORNEYS AT LAW 602 SOUTH TENTH STREET LAS VEGAS, NV 89101 (702)728-5300 (T) / (702)425-8220 (F) WWW.NVLITIGATION.COM SPECIFIC DESCRIPTION OF WHY EXTENSION IS NECESSARY. establish that good cause exists to extend the deadlines. 9 The Parties have been diligently conducting discovery and continue to conduct 10 discovery, but an extension is still needed to efficiently conclude discovery and manage the 11 case. 12 Additionally, the parties are continuing to meet and confer with Defendants’ 13 counsel regarding the FRCP 30(b)(6) deposition and subpoenas. Meet and confer efforts are 14 ongoing. Plaintiffs have also brought a Motion for Sanctions regarding the failure to activate 15 BWCs, preserve BWC video footage, and/or produce BWC video footage. The Parties 16 agree that supplemental briefing is necessary regarding Plaintiffs’ Motion for 17 Sanctions. Likewise, the experts retained in this matter will also need to review the recent 18 discovery responses, Defendants’ supplemental responses (if any), information and 19 documents in response to Plaintiffs’ subpoenas to Justice Court and Municipal Court, BWC 20 videos, and all deposition transcripts, including the FRCP 30(b)(6) designees currently 21 scheduled for in or about October due to the schedule conflicts of counsel and the designees, 22 after the current deadline for initial expert disclosures. The Parties are working with their 23 respective experts to prepare their expert disclosures. However, as noted, the Parties contend 24 25 26 27 28 that it is more efficient to allow further discovery to be completed before initial expert disclosures to minimize the need for supplementation. Finally, the Parties together request this in good faith and to further the resolution of this complicated case on the merits, and not for any purpose of delay. 25 1 The Parties thus respectfully request an extension of time to enable them to conduct 2 necessary discovery and so that this matter is fairly resolved on the merits. “Good cause to 3 extend a discovery deadline exists ‘if it cannot reasonably be met despite the diligence of the 4 party seeking the extension.’” Derosa v. Blood Sys., Inc., No. 2:13-cv-0137-JCM-NJK, 2013 5 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 108235, 2013 WL 3975764, at 1 (D. Nev. Aug. 1, 2013) (quoting Johnson 6 v. Mammoth Recreations, Inc., 975 F.2d 604, 609 (9th Cir. 1992)); see also Fed. R. Civ. P. 7 1 (providing that the Rules of Civil Procedure “should be construed, administered, and 8 employed by the court and the Parties to secure the just, speedy, and inexpensive 9 determination of every action and proceeding”). As the procedural history of this case 10 illustrates, the Parties have been diligent in litigating this matter. Significant written 11 ATTORNEYS AT LAW 602 SOUTH TENTH STREET LAS VEGAS, NV 89101 (702)728-5300 (T) / (702)425-8220 (F) WWW.NVLITIGATION.COM 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 discovery has been exchanged, nearly all depositions are complete, experts are engaged, and counsel continue to meet and confer regarding various topics. Additionally, counsel for the Parties in this matter are litigating several other unrelated matters (including against each other) which have competing demands. While competing demands of litigation are merely one of many reasons for the instant request, it should be noted that the other litigation between the same counsel involving similar issues can only benefit from the completion of discovery in this matter so that in other litigation, similar requests can be expedited and can further the resolution of those matters and the interests of justice. Indeed, counsel for the Parties continue to engage in settlement discussions regarding this and the other matters they are litigating that stem from the BLM protests. Thus, the standards to extend all deadlines, including the expert deadlines, is satisfied here. Based on the foregoing stipulation and proposed deadlines, the Parties thus respectfully request an extension of time to extend the deadlines in this matter to enable to them to conduct necessary discovery and so that this matter is fairly resolved on the merits. /// /// 26 1 IV.
