`

`
`GOOGLE LLC,
`
`
`
`Plaintiff,
`
`v.
`
`SONOS, INC.,
`
`No. 20-06754 WHA
`
`
`ORDER DENYING REQUEST TO
`MODIFY CASE SCHEDULE
`
`Defendant.
`
`
`
`
`Today, the Friday before the Monday deadline for reply expert reports, the parties have
`
`requested an extension (Dkt. No. 449). Specifically, they request to extend the deadlines for
`
`the remaining expert reports, expert discovery, and dispositive motions. The parties state that
`
`this is “necessary and desirable” but provide no justification in their stipulation or attached
`
`declaration beyond that it is “necessary to fully address the key issues in the case” (Moulton
`
`Decl. 1).
`
`The request is DENIED. Expert report and discovery deadlines have already been
`
`extended several times in this action, most recently in December. Moreover, trial is scheduled
`
`to begin in early May. Given the impending trial date, no further extensions will be granted
`
`absent an exceedingly compelling justification.
`
`IT IS SO ORDERED.
`
`Dated: January 20, 2023.
