STIPULATION

The parties, by and through their respective attorneys of record, hereby stipulate and 

agree as follows:

1. On February 13, 2017, County of Stanislaus filed a Motion to Change Venue, 

and the Court set a Motion Hearing for April 13, 2017 at 11:00 a.m.

2. On February 17, 2017 the CFMG Defendants filed a Motion to Dismiss or in 

the Alternative Transfer Venue, and Court set the hearing date for April 27, 

2017 at 2:00 p.m.

2. On February 17, 2017, the Court reset the hearing date for County of 

Stanislaus’ Motion to Change Venue to April 27, 2017 at 2:00 p.m.

3. The parties jointly request that the Court continue the briefing schedule as 

follows:

a) Plaintiff's Opposition due on or before April 3, 2017;

b) Defendants’ Replies due on or before April 10, 2017.

4. Good cause exists, because Plaintiff’s co-counsel, Haddad & Sherwin LLP, 

just appeared in this action on February 17, 2017 (Doc. 26), and Plaintiff’s counsel has several 

other major deadlines and responsibilities in other pending cases that would make it impossible 

to adequately brief opposition papers to Defendants’ motions by the current deadline of 

February 27, 2017. Further, since the hearing date for both motions already has been 

consolidated to April 27, 2017, there is sufficient time for the parties and court to brief and 

review responses and replies according to normal deadlines pegged to the new hearing date.

5. For these reasons, all parties stipulate and request that this Court enter the 

following order adjusting the briefing schedule for these motions.
