1 Case No. 4:15-cv-05120-HSG

STIPULATED REQUEST TO CONTINUE CASE-MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE 

In accordance with Civil Local Rules 6-1(b) and 6-2 of the U.S. District Court for the 

Northern District of California, the parties respectfully request that the case-management 

conference (CMC) currently set for February 12, 2020, be continued to February 19, 2020. 

On February 7, the Court reset the CMC from February 11 to February 12. (Dkt. 46.) 

Counsel for Plaintiffs, however, must attend a court-ordered mediation in another case on that 

February 12. (Declaration of Mathew Borden (“Borden Decl.”) ¶ 2.) Counsel for both parties are 

available on February 19. Thus, the parties request that the CMC be reset for that date. 

The following time modifications have taken place in this case: 

x On December 10, 2015, the Court ordered a stipulated briefing schedule and hearing 

date for Defendant’s motion to dismiss Plaintiffs’ original complaint. (Dkt. 9.) 

x On January 25, 2016, the Court changed the hearing date for Defendant’s motion to 

dismiss Plaintiffs’ original complaint by stipulation. (Dkt. 17.) 

x On October 8, 2019, the parties stipulated to a three-week extension for Defendant to 

respond to Plaintiffs’ first amended complaint. (Dkt. 36.) 

x On November 15, 2019, the parties stipulated to extend the briefing schedule for 

Defendant’s motion to dismiss. (Dkt. 39.) 

The requested extension would result in the following schedule: 

x Case-management conference: February 19, 2020, at 2:00 p.m. 

Accordingly, the Parties respectfully request that the Court order the above change in 

schedule. 

IT IS SO STIPULATED. 

Dated: February 10, 2020 BRAUNHAGEY & BORDEN LLP
