10/24/2016MotionFiled Motion for Extension of Time to File Amicus Brief.16-33248
11/03/2016Order/ProceduralFiled Order. Cause appearing, we grant real parties in interest's motion for an extension of time to file an answer to the petition for writ of mandamus. Real parties in interest, on behalf of respondents, shall have until November 30, 2016, to file and serve an answer, including authorities, against issuance of the requested writ. Briad Restaurant Group, LLC, Wendy's of Las Vegas, Inc., Cedar Enterprises, Inc., and Terrible Herbst, Inc., (Briad) have filed a consent to participate as amici curiae and request for invitation to participate as amici curiae. Accordingly, no "invitation" or leave of court is required to file an amici brief. Briad has also filed a motion for an extension of time, until November 14, 2016, to file its amicus brief. Because Briad does not state if it seeks to file a brief in support of petitioners or real parties in interest, it is not clear if such a motion is necessary. If its amicus brief will support real parties in interest, no motion is necessary; Briad has 7 days after the brief of real parties in interest is filed to file and serve its brief. If, however, Briad's brief will support petitioners or will not support either party, the brief is already untimely. Under these circumstances, we order as follows. To the extent Briad seeks an extension of time to file an amicus brief that will support petitioners or neither party, Briad will have until November 14, 2016, to do so. To the extent Briad seeks an extension of time to file an amicus brief in support of real parties in interest, the motion is denied as unnecessary. Claim Jumper Acquisition Company, LLC, Landry's, Inc., Bubba Gump Shrimp Co., Restaurants, Inc., Bertolini's of Las Vegas, Inc., D/B/A Trevi, and Morton of Chicago/Flamingo Road Corp., D/B/A Morton's the Steakhouse have also filed a motion for an extension of time to file a brief of amicus curiae. The motion is premature because these parties have not been granted leave to file an amicus brief nor have they filed a written consent of all the parties to file a brief. Accordingly, we take no action on the motion. Petitioners shall have 15 days from service of Briad's amicus brief or the answer to the petition, whichever is filed later, to file and serve any combined reply to the answer to the petition and answer to Briad's amicus brief.16-34391

11/10/2016Order/ProceduralFiled Order Regarding Motion. Because Claim Jumper does not state if it seeks to file a brief in support of petitioners or real parties in interest, it is not clear if a motion for an extension of time is necessary. If its amicus brief will support real parties in interest, no motion is necessary; Claim Jumper has 7 days after the brief of real parties in interest is filed to file and serve its brief. If, however, Claim Jumper's brief will support petitioners or will not support either party, the brief is already untimely. Under these circumstances, we order as follows. To the extent Claim Jumper seeks an extension of time to file an amicus brief that will support petitioners or neither party, Claim Jumper will have until November 14, 2016, to do so. To the extent Claim Jumper seeks an extension of time to file an amicus brief in support of real parties in interest, the motion is unnecessary and we take no action on it.16-35163
