I. MEDIATION REPORT

On April 22, 2010, the parties participated in a full day of mediation with the 

Honorable Edward Infante (Ret.). During the mediation, the parties narrowed their 

differences and agreed to reconvene on May 7, 2010, the next available date on Judge 

Infante’s calendar. Given the progress made during the mediation and in the interest of 

conserving resources, the parties agreed to delay further the deposition of plaintiffs’ 

expert Dr. Richard Martell until after the next mediation session.1

 As a result, the 

parties respectfully submit for the Court’s consideration a new joint scheduling order. 

II. PROPOSED JOINT SCHEDULING ORDER

WHEREAS the parties have met and conferred regarding modifications to several 

dates set by the Court in its November 23, 2009 Case Management and Pretrial Order 

(Dkt. 805) and in the parties’ February 10, 2010 stipulation entered by the Court (Dkt. 

809);

WHEREAS the proposed modifications are needed to accommodate the progress 

the parties have made in mediation and the unforeseen circumstances regarding the 

availability of plaintiffs’ expert Richard Martell; 

IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED by and between the parties through their counsel 

of record that the current scheduling order in effect shall be modified as follows: 

1

 Dr. Martell’s deposition was originally scheduled for April 16, but was postponed due 

to an injury suffered by Dr. Martell. The parties have agreed to reschedule Dr. Martell’s 

deposition on June 14.
