STATUS Report JOINT by SHENZHEN JISU TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD Presented before Magistrate Judge

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Maria Valdez: The discovery schedule related to the amended complaint is entered as follows: Rule 26(a)(1) disclosures (excluding Defendant Zhouty) to be made by 4/21/25; fact discovery shall be issued no later than 5/12/25; the fact discovery deadline is 11/28/25; initial experts shall be disclosed by 12/12/25; initial expert reports shall be disclosed by 12/26/25; rebuttal expert reports shall be disclosed by 1/9/26; and the deadline for all expert discovery is 1/23/26. The parties are expected to proceed expeditiously to complete discovery by the deadlines. There will be no extensions absent good cause under Fed. R. Civ.

The Court generally does not consider obligations in other cases, vacations, holidays, illnesses, or difficulty scheduling depositions to demonstrate good cause, as there is more than enough time to complete discovery even if those expected complications arise. The parties must file a joint status report by 6/20/25 describing discovery progress and the prospects of settlement. If the parties wish to begin the process of scheduling a settlement conference at any time prior to that date, they should notify the Court. Mailed notice
