ORDER

1 The Scheduling Order may be modified only for good cause and with the Court’s 2 consent. Fed. R. Civ. P. 16(b)(4). A calendaring error is generally not considered good cause. 3 See Sprague v. Fin. Credit Network, Inc., 2018 WL 4616688, at *3-4 (E.D. Cal. Sept. 25, 2018). 4 Moreover, requests for Court-approved extensions brought on or after the applicable deadline are 5 looked upon with disfavor. Local Rule 144(d). Nonetheless, based upon the parties’ consent to 6 extension, and in the interest of justice, the Court finds that a limited continuance as requested is 7 warranted and no prejudice will result. 8 Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, that that the deadline for Plaintiff to file a 9 letter brief is extended to February 15, 2020. All other dates in the Court’s Scheduling Order are 10 extended accordingly.

11

IT IS SO ORDERED.
