1 STIPULATION TO CONTINUE CASE

MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE; [PROPOSED]

ORDER

943498.1

Pursuant to Northern District of California Local Rule 6-1 (a), Plaintiff Davin Montoya

(“Plaintiff”) and Defendant Comcast Corporation (“Defendant”), through their undersigned

counsel, hereby agree and stipulate that Defendant shall have an extension of time until July 10,

2015 to file its Answer to Plaintiff’s Complaint, which was filed with this Court on May 5, 2015.

The parties have been engaged in negotiations to resolve this matter, but as these attempts were not

successful, the parties have now agreed that Defendant may respond to Plaintiff’s complaint on

July 10, 2015.

The parties also stipulate and consent to the jurisdiction of Magistrate Judge Nathanael

Cousins for all purposes in this case.

Additionally, pursuant to Northern District of California Local Rule 6-2, the parties

stipulate and request an order rescheduling the Initial Case Management Conference in this matter,

currently scheduled for August 5, 2015, to August 19, 2015 (or in the alternative, August 12 or

August 26, 2015). The parties request this enlargement of time because Plaintiff’s counsel, Alan

Adelman, and lead defense counsel, Mark S. Spring, are unavailable to appear on August 5, 2015.

Mr. Adelman will be on a backpacking trip in the Sierra Nevada Mountains, and Mark S. Spring is

on a prepaid vacation the week of August 2 due to his sister’s wedding. Declaration of Teresa W.

Ghali ¶ 2. The stipulation to extend time to respond to the Complaint and stipulated request to

reschedule the Initial CMC are the first requests for time modification in this case; these extensions

will not affect the parties’ ability to proceed with this litigation in a timely fashion. Id.

IT IS SO STIPULATED.

DECLARATION OF TERESA W. GHALI

1. I am an attorney at law duly licensed to practice before all of the courts in the State

of California. I am an associate with the law firm of Carothers DiSante & Freudenberger LLP

(“CDF”), counsel of record for Comcast Corporation (“Defendant” or “Comcast”) in this action. I

have personal knowledge of the facts set forth in this Declaration and, if called as a witness, could

and would testify competently to such facts under oath.

2. The parties request that the Initial Case Management Conference in this matter,

currently scheduled for August 5, 2015, be moved to August 19, 2015, or in the alternative, August

12 or August 26, 2015. The parties seek this enlargement of time because Plaintiff’s counsel and

lead defense counsel, Mark S. Spring, are unavailable to appear on August 5, 2015. Mr. Adelman

has informed our firm that he will be on a backpacking trip in the Sierra Nevada Mountains during

that week. Mr. Spring is lead trial counsel and he has informed me that he is on vacation from late

July through August 8, in New York, as his sister is getting married during this time in New York.

3. The stipulation to extend time to respond to the Complaint and stipulated request to

reschedule the Initial CMC are the first requests for time modification in this case; these extensions

will not affect the parties’ ability to proceed with this litigation in a timely fashion. Id.

4. Per Northern District Local Rule 5-1(i)(3), I attest that I have obtained authorization

from Plaintiff’s counsel, Alan Adelman, to file this Stipulation on his behalf.

I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the State of California and the United

States of America that the foregoing is true and correct.

Executed on this 26th day of June, 2015, at San Francisco, California.
