STIPULATION AND ORDER 

WHEREAS Plaintiff filed its Complaint in the Superior Court of the State of California 

for the County of Sacramento on December 31, 2009; 

WHEREAS Plaintiff contemporaneously filed a Motion to Disqualify Counsel for 

Defendants (the “Disqualification Motion”); 

WHEREAS Defendants removed this lawsuit to this Court on February 4, 2010; 

WHEREAS the Court immediately entered an order requiring the parties to submit a Joint 

Status Report within 60 days of removal, which makes the deadline to submit a Joint Status 

Report April 5, 2010; 

WHEREAS Plaintiff thereafter refiled its Disqualification Motion in this Court, and it is 

scheduled to be heard on April 23, 2010; 

WHEREAS in light of the pending Disqualification Motion, and in the interests of judicial 

economy and efficiency, the parties stipulated that Defendants would have until 45 days after the 

Court’s ruling on the Disqualification Motion to respond to the Complaint; 

WHEREAS the Court approved that stipulation on February 24, 2010; 

WHEREAS Defendants currently anticipate responding to the Complaint by way of a 

motion to dismiss; 

WHEREAS the parties believe that, in the interests of judicial economy and efficiency, it 

makes sense to continue the deadline to submit the Joint Status Report until after the Court rules 

on the Disqualification Motion and the anticipated motion to dismiss and the case is at issue; 

NOW THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED BY AND AMONG THE PARTIES 

HERETO THAT the parties shall have until 21 days after the case is put at issue by the filing of
