CASE NO. CV 16-00434 KAW 

STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER 

EXTENDING DEADLINE FOR MEDIATION 

AND CONTINUING MOTION HEARING AND 

CASE MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE

 

This case was referred to the Court’s mediation program on March 14, 2016. The mediation was 

initially scheduled for June 29, 2016, and the mediation deadline was modified accordingly. Due to 

plaintiff’s counsel’s trial schedule, as well as issues that have arisen relating to discovery and potentially 

liable third parties, the parties wish to continue the mediation. After discussions with the courtappointed mediator, the parties have tentatively rescheduled the mediation to August 9, subject to the 

Court’s approval. 

In order to keep the case in the same litigation posture that it would have been in vis-à-vis 

defendant’s pending motion to dismiss (the briefing for which is complete) and the initial case 

management conference, the parties also request that those matters be similarly continued. 

The parties therefore STIPULATE AND REQUEST as follows:
