Attorney for Plaintiffs 

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

NORTHERN CALIFORNIA GLAZIERS, 

ARCHITECTURAL METAL AND 

GLASSWORKERS PENSION PLAN, et al., 

Plaintiffs, 

v. 

THOMAS H. FRENCH, INC., 

Defendant. 

Case No.: C 06-02075 JSW 

REQUEST TO VACATE ORDER, 

REFERRING PLAINTIFFS’ REQUEST TO 

ISSUE WRIT, TO MAGISTRATE JUDGE 

I, Muriel B. Kaplan, declare as follows: 

1. I am member of the firm of Saltzman & Johnson Law Corporation, counsel for 

plaintiffs, the Northern California Glaziers, Architectural Metal and Glassworkers Pension Plan, et 

al. 

2. As the Court’s docket will reflect, on May 31, 2006 Plaintiffs filed their 

Declination to Proceed before a Magistrate Judge, pursuant to Local Rule 73-1(a). No Case 

Management Conference had been set as the parties had stipulated to immediate entry of 

judgment. 

3. On April 21, 2006, judgment was entered. However contrary to the stipulated 

terms of the judgment, a hearing was set as to amounts due at that time, which would have given 

defendants notice to conceal assets which might have satisfied Plaintiffs’ judgment.

4. Following Plaintiffs’ Declination, this matter was reassigned to the Honorable 

Jeffrey S. White on June 2, 2006. Thereafter, Defendants’ “new bookkeeper” contacted this office 

in an attempt to resolve the outstanding debt. When no apparent progress was being made, 

Plaintiffs filed their Request for Issuance of Writ on July 28, 2006. Sources of Defendants’ funds 

have now been identified as sources to satisfy Plaintiffs’ judgment, and time is of the essence. 

5. Plaintiffs therefore respectfully that this court vacate its August 1, 2006 “Order 

Referring Request to Issue Writ of Execution to Magistrate Judge....” and issue the Writ as 

immediately as is possible, so that Plaintiffs may attempt to satisfy its increasing judgment. 

I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct and if called upon 

to testify, I could competently testify thereto. 

Executed this 1st day of August 2006, at San Francisco, California.
