The parties in the above-captioned case, by and through their counsel of record, hereby represent 

to the Court as follows:

On April 29, 2014, Plaintiffs filed their First Amended Complaint in the above captioned action, 

and Defendants CITY OF VACAVILLE, CHIEF RICHARD WORD, OFFICER KINGI and OFFICER 

VALK’s last day to file a responsive pleading to the First Amended Complaint was extended to June 12, 

2014 by stipulation and order, 

In order to avoid unnecessary motion practice, the parties agreed to meet and confer regarding 

defendants’ contention that certain causes of action alleged by plaintiffs fail to state a claim,

In furtherance of the parties’ agreement, defense counsel forwarded correspondence to plaintiffs’ 

counsel, detailing defendants’ contentions regarding the first amended complaint,

Also, on June 6, 2014, although discovery has not yet commenced, defendants informally 

produced to plaintiffs the investigative file in this matter so plaintiff could ascertain the names of 

additional officers plaintiffs believe should be named as defendants in this matter, 

On June 10, 2014, the parties further met and conferred by telephone to discuss the claims made 

in the first amended complaint and counsel agreed that it makes sense for plaintiffs to file a second 

amended complaint, containing the names of any additional defendants and modifying claims to the 

extent the parties can reach agreement in this regard,

The parties therefore stipulate and request that this court permit plaintiffs to file a second 

amended complaint on or before July 3, 2014.
