Date to Complete Mediation and to Continue 

Case Management Conference

C. Through inadvertence, plaintiff, a citizen and resident of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, failed to 

apply for a passport and visa to travel to California in time to attend the mediation.

D. Plaintiff is informed that the “typical wait time” for issuance of a visa by the U.S.

Consulate in Rio de Janeiro as listed on its website is 60 days. Plaintiff must also apply for a passport

because she has never traveled outside Brazil. 

E. Plaintiff believes that an approximately 90 day extension from 7/21/06 to 10/19/06 will

safely afford plaintiff sufficient time to obtain a passport and visa for travel to the U.S. so that she may

attend mediation. The Mediator has been contacted and remains available and willing to conduct the

mediation within this new time frame. 

F. In order to hold down costs and maintain the status quo leading into mediation, the parties

request a stay of all other proceedings in the case, including motions and formal discovery, until after

completing the mediation.

ACCORDINGLY, IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED:

1. The date for completion of court mediation of this case shall be continued to 10/19/06. 

Plaintiff shall promptly apply for a passport and visa for travel to California so that she may attend

mediation in San Francisco within this time frame. 

2. As soon as plaintiff obtains her passport and visa, plaintiff’s counsel shall notify defendant’s

counsel thereof, and the parties shall coordinate with the Mediator to schedule a pre-mediation

telephone conference and reschedule mediation as soon as feasible for the parties and Mediator. 

3. All proceedings in the case, including motions and formal discovery, shall be stayed until

after completing mediation.

4. The Case Management Conference currently scheduled for July 21, 2006 shall be continued

to October 20, 2006 at 10:30 a.m.

IT IS SO STIPULATED.
