UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

Case No.: 2:21-cv-01986-RFB-NJK

Applicant, RESPONDENTS’ UNOPPOSED MOTION TO MODIFY SCHEDULING v. RED ROCK RESORTS, INC. et al., (FIRST REQUEST) Respondents.

Respondents respectfully move this Court for an Order modifying the current Scheduling Order (ECF 37) to extend the time for responding to Applicant’s Renewed Application for Order Requiring Compliance with Subpoenas Duces Tecum Pursuant to Section 11(2) of the National Labor Relations Act, As Amended [29 U.S.C. § 161(2)] by fourteen days from the present deadline of June 10, 2022 until June 24, 2022 pursuant to Local Rule IA 6-1(a). As good cause for Respondents’ motion, Respondents state as follows: 1. This is an action to enforce thirteen subpoenas duces tecum issued in an underlying unfair labor practice proceeding before an Administrative Law Judge of the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB). The subpoenas themselves each include 317 separately numbered paragraphs with more than 1100 subparts. 2. The NLRB commenced this proceeding on October 29, 2021. Following the submission of Respondent’s Opposition, the NLRB’s Reply, and Respondents’ Sur-Reply, the Court denied NLRB’s petition without prejudice on February 28, 2022 (ECF 34). 3. No activity occurred in this case between the Court’s denial of the petition and a subsequent Order issued April 7, 2022 which directed the parties to file either “(1) a joint proposed schedule for motion practice and briefing, (2) a joint status report, or (3) dismissal papers.” (ECF 35). 4. The parties filed a joint status report on April 21, 2022 but did not propose a briefing schedule. (ECF 36). On April 22, 2022, the Court set the following briefing schedule: a. Petitioner’s Renewed Request for Relief May 20, 2022 b. Respondents’ Response June 10, 2022 c. Petitioner’s Reply June 20, 2022 (ECF 37).1 5. On May 20, 2022, Petitioner’s filed their request for relief, styled as Renewed Application for Order Requiring Compliance with Subpoenas Duces Tecum Pursuant to Section 11(2) of the National Labor Relations Act, As Amended [29 U.S.C. § 161(2)] (the “Application). The Application and supporting document total 991 pages of material. Within Petitioner’s Memorandum of Points and Authorities, Petitioner addresses 14 groupings of specified subpoena 1 The Court entered the same schedule in a related proceeding, Local Joint Executive Board of Las Vegas, ex rel. National Labor Relations Board v. Station Casinos, LLC, Civ. A. 2:22-cv-00100-RFB-NJK (the “Related Case”). See Docket No. 21 (April 22, 2022). requests it is asking the Court to enforce. In total, these 14 groups represent 86 separate requests in the challenged subpoenas, each with multiple subparts. 6. Responding to the Application will involve review of each of the 86 subpoena requests and their subparts, review of whether the information requested is “relevant and material to the investigation[,]”2 a determination as to whether the request is “unreasonable because it is overbroad or unduly burdensome[,]”3 and review of Respondents’ production to date to determine what, if anything within Respondents’ possession, custody, and control has yet to be produced. This review will involve the undersigned working with Respondents’ counsel in the underlying NLRB matter intensely over a period of several days, if not weeks. Given the press of commitments in other matters, high school graduation ceremonies, and previously planned vacations, the time to confer is already limited, especially considering Respondents will be responding to a similar filing in the Related Case.4 7. Good cause exists for the following requested modification to the Court’s April 21, 2022 Scheduling Order, because the additional time will permit Respondents to effectively marshal a response to the Application and hopefully narrow the issues in dispute: a. Respondents’ Response June 24, 2022 b. Petitioner’s Reply July 5, 2022 8. The Petitioner does not oppose the requested modification of the scheduling order. 9. A proposed order is submitted herewith.

2 NLRB v. North Bay Plumbing, Inc., 102 F.3d 1005, 1007 (9th Cir. 1996). 3 Id. 4 Respondents note that a similar motion will be filed in the Related Case. WHEREFORE, Respondents respectfully request that the Court grant this unopposed motion and modify the Scheduling Order as requested herein. Respectfully submitted, FISHER & PHILLIPS LLP
