Case No. 1:13-CV-02057-JLT

STIPULATION TO MODIFY THE 

SCHEDULING ORDER; DECLARATION 

OF MICHAEL G. MARDEROSIAN; 

[PROPOSED] ORDER THEREON

(Doc. 53)

Following the May 27, 2015 teleconference with the Court, the Parties met and conferred and 

agreed that the parties should attempt to resolve this matter prior to commencing expert depositions. 

Accordingly, the Parties stipulate and request that this Court modify the existing Scheduling Order as 

follows to allow meaningful settlement negotiations to occur:

Deadline Current Date Requested Date

Expert Discovery Cutoff June 12, 2015 July 27, 2015

Deadline to File Dispositive Motions June 30, 2015 August 14, 2015

Pretrial Conference October 6, 2015 December 8, 2015

As is set forth in the Declaration of Michael G. Marderosian submitted herewith, GOOD CAUSE 

appears to modify the Scheduling Order as requested because the parties are currently attempting to 

resolve this matter before taking expensive expert depositions and desire to save judicial resources 

regarding expert discovery and any motion for summary judgment. The parties have scheduled a 

mediation with mediator Oliver U. Robinson Esq. for June 12, 2015. Should a settlement in principal be 

reached, it would be subject to City Council approval which also will take additional time. 

The requested continuances will not, in any way, affect the February 2, 2016 trial date.
