 The Court is inclined to grant the Motion for Conditional 

Certification of Settlement Class; Preliminary Approval of 

Settlement Agreement; Stay of the Proceedings; Notice to Class 

Members; and Schedule Setting Fairness Hearing for Final Approval 

(Docket No. 424). Although the Court recognizes that the parties 

have agreed to forego the hearing noticed for October 6, 2015, the 

Court does not wish to foreclose a hearing at this time. Parties 

not in the Northern District of California are granted leave to 

appear by telephone. If any party wishes to appear by telephone, 

that party must contact the Courtroom Deputy by 12:00 pm on 

Monday, October 5, for instructions for telephone appearances. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
