STATUS REPORT AND STIPULATION FOR FURTHER EXTENSION OF DEADLINE TO FILE 

STIULATION FOR DISMISSAL; ORDER 

Gordon & Rees LLP 

275 Battery Street, Suite 2000 

San Francisco, CA 94111 

TO THE HONORABLE COURT: 

Plaintiff/Counter-Defendant Nutrishare, Inc. (“Nutrishare”) and Defendants/CounterClaimants Connecticut General Life Insurance Company and CIGNA Health and Life Insurance 

Company (“CIGNA”) (collectively, “Parties”) hereby submit the following Status Report and 

Stipulation as follows: 

The Parties entered into a Settlement Agreement dated December 23, 2015, which 

required, among other things, that Cigna reprocess and pay a number of claims. Due to the 

complexity of the underlying services, the large number of individual claims at issue, and the 

unwieldly computer systems at issue, the reprocessing of the claims has taken months longer 

than anticipated. Until those claims are reprocessed, the final settlement payments and dismissal 

cannot be effectuated. The Parties have at all times worked diligently to resolve these issues, but 

it has taken much longer than expected. The Parties expect to have these issues resolved very 

soon, but need more time to do so. 

Therefore, the Parties stipulate as follows: 

WHEREAS, the Court continued the Parties’ deadline to file settlement/dismissal 

documents to April 4, 2016 and later continued the deadline until May 4, 2016; 

WHEREAS, the Settlement Agreement provides for installment payments that the Parties 

anticipate will be completed in early June 2016 and further provides that the Parties will file a 

request for dismissal within 10 days of the final settlement payment; 

WHEREAS, there has been an unanticipated delay in the completion of the performance 

required by the Parties’ settlement, which the Parties are actively and cooperatively working to 

resolve; 

WHEREAS, the Parties believe that an additional extension of the deadline to file a 

stipulation of dismissal will provide adequate time for the Parties to resolve all remaining issues 

with the completion of the settlement and file a request for dismissal of this action;
