STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER

3:15-CV-01129 

Pursuant to Local Rule 6-2 and 7-12, Defendants DIRECTV and DIRECTV, LLC 

(collectively “DIRECTV”) and Plaintiff Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”), hereby stipulate and 

agree as follows: 

1. DIRECTV’s Motion for Partial Summary Judgment (Dkt. 53, the “Motion”) is fully 

briefed and scheduled for hearing on February 25, 2016. 

2. Due to DIRECTV’s lead trial counsel’s unavailability on February 25, 2016, and with 

agreement from the FTC, the parties respectfully request that the hearing be continued until March 4, 

2016. 

3. Chad Hummel, lead trial counsel for DIRECTV, will be in trial on February 25, 2016, 

in the matter captioned as Mount Olympus Mortgage Co. v. Benjamin Anderson, et al., Case No. 30-

2014-00729438-CU-BT-CJC in the Superior Court of the State of California, for the County of 

Orange (Hon. Craig Griffin presiding). 

4. At the time the hearing on the Motion was set, Judge Griffin had a different trial 

schedule that would have allowed Mr. Hummel to argue the motion on February 25, 2015. 

5. DIRECTV has asked the FTC if it is available for a hearing on March 4, 2016 and 

whether it would agree to request a continuance to that date. Eric Edmondson, lead trial counsel for 

the FTC, stated that he is available on March 4, 2016 and that the FTC agrees to make the request. 

6. Accordingly, the parties hereby agree and stipulate and respectfully request that this 

Court continue the hearing date on the Motion for Partial Summary Judgment to Friday, March 4, 

2016, at 2:00 p.m., or as soon thereafter as the matter may be heard before the Court. 

7. The parties recognize that Your Honor does not normally conduct hearings on Fridays 

and that they are requesting an exception to Your Honor’s normal procedures. 

8. This will be the third time the hearing on the Motion for Partial Summary Judgment 

has been continued. The Court previously continued the hearing on October 21, 2015, when it 

granted the FTC’s Motion for Extension of Time to File Response/Reply to the Motion for Partial 

Summary Judgment. [Dkt. No. 64]. The hearing was continued again on December 9, 2015, after 

the Court granted the parties’ stipulation to continue the hearing to allow time for additional 

discovery. [Dkt. No. 87].
