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

that the deadline for plaintiffs to file a motion for class certification be continued from May 7, 2010 

to May 12, 2010. 

A continuance of the deadline for filing the motion for class certification is warranted as the 

City's counsel in this action, Deputy City Attorney Jonathan Rolnick, is scheduled to begin a bench 

trial in San Francisco Superior Court on Monday, May 3, 2010 in Chiquete v. City and County of San 

Francisco, Case No. 509673. Mr. Rolnick's handling of this trial was unexpected. The deputy city 

attorney previously handling the Chiquete case and is unavailable due to a death in her family on or 

about April 24. The City anticipates that the trial should take no more than two days. However, 

depending on when the case is assigned a courtroom, it is possible that the trial might overlap with 

the time provided for the City to prepare its opposition to the motion for class certification. A brief 

continuance of the filing deadline will ensure that the City have the benefit of fourteen days to 

prepare its opposition briefing and evidence. 

The parties hereby agree to the following briefing schedule for the motion for class 

certification: 

 a) Plaintiffs' moving papers - May 12, 2010 

 b) Defendant's opposition papers – May 26, 2010 

 c) Plaintiffs' reply brief – June 4, 2010 

 d) Hearing on Plaintiffs' Motion for Class Certification – June 16, 2010 

Dated: May 4, 2010
