9 10 SOPHIE HARTMAN, et al., CASE NO. C24-0554JLR 11 Plaintiffs, ORDER v. 12 STATE OF WASHINGTON 13 DEPARTMENT OF CHILDREN YOUTH AND FAMILIES, et al., 14 15 Defendants.
16 Before the court is a stipulated motion to extend the noting date as to Plaintiffs 17 Sophie Hartman, M.H., and C.H.’s (collectively, “Plaintiffs”) motion for leave to amend 18 their complaint. (Mot. Extend (Dkt. # 35); see Mot. Leave (Dkt. # 22).) The stipulated 19 motion, however, is not signed by counsel for Defendants Seattle Children’s Hospital, 20 Nancy Chase, and Beth Nauert. (See Mot. Extend at 3.) Plaintiffs note that they “have 21 not heard back from counsel” for those parties. (Id. at 1 n.1.) 22 // 1 Failure to include signatures from counsel for all parties constitutes grounds for 2 denial. See Local Rules W.D. Wash. LCR 1(c)(7) (noting that a stipulated motion is an
3 agreement “between or among the parties”). Nevertheless, the court has the inherent 4 authority to manage its dockets, Dietz v. Bouldin, 579 U.S. 40, 47 (2016), and finds good 5 cause to grant Plaintiffs’ request. 6 The court therefore GRANTS the motion to extend the noting date as to Plaintiffs’ 7 motion for leave to amend their complaint (Dkt. # 35). The court DIRECTS the Clerk to 8 re-note Plaintiffs’ motion for leave to amend their complaint (Dkt. # 22) for June 12,
