Discovery Extensions in Judge-Managed Cases

Discovery Extensions in Judge-Managed Cases
When a discovery extension is needed in a judge- managed case, this need generally can be addressed in a case management conference and order. Alternatively, the managing judge may direct that the party requesting the extension file a motion.
Right to 60-Day Discovery End Date Extension When Answer Stricken
A party has the right to the “automatic” 60-day discovery extension when, at the time the request is received, the defendant’s answer has been stricken without prejudice for failure to provide discovery, provided all parties consent to the extension and the request is timely made.
