Date

Background

The provided text is a letter from counsel for defendants J.D.M. Marmol & Granite and Marcos Zhiminaicela. Counsel asked for an extension until January 26, 2024, to file a motion for summary judgment. The letter stated that counsel had been medically ill during the first two weeks of January.

Counsel also asserted that the defendants were not the plaintiffs’ employer or joint employer, that the plaintiffs had not provided discovery responses containing evidence that the defendants were employers, and that there was no factual issue requiring further proceedings against these defendants.

Ruling

The court marked the request “SO ORDERED” and dated the order January 22, 2024. The text therefore approves the requested extension to January 26, 2024. The provided text does not decide the proposed summary-judgment motion or the parties’ employer-related dispute.
