STIPULATION TO EXTEND WALMART’S Case No. 1:24-cv-00288-JLT-BAM

DEADLINE TO RESPOND TO THE COMPLAINT

STIPULATION

Plaintiffs Grace Navarro and Chatham Mullins (“Plaintiffs”) and Defendant Walmart, Inc. 

(“Walmart”; with Plaintiffs, the “Parties”), by and through their undersigned counsel, hereby stipulate 

to extend Walmart’s deadline to answer or otherwise respond to Plaintiffs’ Class Action Complaint by 

an additional 30 days to June 10, 2024. In support thereof, the Parties state as follows:

WHEREAS Plaintiffs filed the complaint on March 8, 2024 and served the Complaint on 

Walmart on March 19, 2024;

WHEREAS, on April 8, the Court granted the parties’ stipulation to extend Walmart’s deadline 

to file a responsive pleading by 30 days, to and including May 9, 2024 (ECF No. 9);

WHEREAS, after the filing of the Complaint, three other complaints were filed against 

Walmart in other jurisdictions regarding the same products and theory of liability as in the Complaint. 

See Williams v. Walmart, Inc., Case No. 1:24-cv-02173 (N.D. Ill., filed Mar. 15, 2024); Sanderlin v. 

Walmart, Inc., Case No. 4:24-cv-01656 (D.S.C., filed Apr. 2, 2024); Emery, et al. v. Wal-Mart Stores, 

Inc., Case No. 3:24-cv-05019 (W.D. Mo., filed Mar. 20, 2024).

WHEREAS, the parties are currently in discussions regarding whether consolidation of the 

four actions is appropriate and the means by which they can accomplish consolidation;

WHEREAS, to allow the parties sufficient time to consider and accomplish a potential 

consolidation of the cases, Walmart seeks, and Plaintiffs have agreed, to extend Walmart’s deadline 

to file a responsive pleading by an additional 30 days, to and including June 10, 2024;

WHEREAS, good cause exists for the extension. The interests of efficiency and judicial 

economy will be served by allowing the parties an opportunity to consolidate the cases prior to filing 

responsive pleadings; 

WHEREAS, this is the second extension requested by Walmart, and it is not submitted for the 

purposes of delay; and

WHEREAS, no other parties are affected by this stipulated extension.
