IT IS HEREBY RESPECTFULLY REQUESTED AND STIPULATED, by and between the 

parties hereto, that the Case Management Conference currently set for November 16, 2007, be 

continued to one of the following dates or to some other date which may be convenient for the 

Court. 

January 11, 2008 , at 10:30 a.m. 

January 18, 2008, at 10:30 a.m. 

January 25, 2008, at 10:30 a.m. 

There are two reasons for this request. First, plaintiff=s counsel, Mark E. Merin, has a 

previously scheduled Final Fairness Hearing in a class action lawsuit (Schaffer v. Alameda County, 

et al., USDC, ND 3:06-cv-00310-MMC) scheduled for that same day at 9:00 a.m. in the United 

States District Court, Northern District, San Francisco. Secondly, the parties have scheduled private 

mediation for December 4 and 5, 2007, and feel that holding a Case Management Conference prior 

to mediation would not be the best use of judicial time. 

The parties respectfully request the Court continue the Case Management Conference to one 

of the dates listed above, or to some other date thereafter which may be more convenient for the 

Court.
