Stipulation And [Proposed] Order Extending Deadline To File Class Certification Motion 

230(g), and 83-141 hereby stipulate to and request that the Court issue an order extending the Court’s 

July 8, 2005 deadline for plaintiff to file a motion for class certification to August 31, 2005. 

Good cause exists for this request. First, plaintiff’s counsel, Ms. June Coleman is getting 

married in July 2005 and has prepaid honeymoon travel plans out of the country that will limit 

plaintiff’s ability to prosecute a motion for class certification under the Court’s earlier July 8, 2005 

deadline. 

Second, as noted in both Joint Status Reports filed with the Court, all parties had previously 

agreed to extend the deadline to file motions for class certification against each of the defendants until 

August 8, 2005. All parties have also stipulated to extending the deadline to file motion s for class 

certification up to August 31, 2005. 

Third, Ms. Giesbrecht is in settlement negotiations with several defendants that may resolve 

the claims asserted against these defendants. The requested extension may conserve judicial resources 

in that it may negate the need for the motion for class certification against these defendants. 

Finally, several of the defendants have also requested extensions to respond to discovery. 

However, plaintiff needs the discovery responses to support the motion for class certification. To 

accommodate these requests, plaintiff needs an extension of the deadline to file a motion for class 

certification. 

In light of the foregoing, good cause exists to extend the deadline to file a motion for class 

certification against all defendants. Pursuant to this stipulation, the aforementioned parties respectfully 

and jointly request that the Court issue an order extending the July 8, 2005 deadline to file a motion for 

class certification against each defendant to August 31, 2005.
