STIPULATION & [PROPOSED] ORDER TO RE-SET CLASS CERTIFICATION SCHEDULE 

The Parties to the above-entitled action, through their respective counsel of record, submit 

this Stipulation and Proposed Order to re-set Plaintiff’s deadline to file a motion for class 

certification. The deadline to move for class certification is presently August 8, 2016. Plaintiffs 

seek to re-set this deadline to March 30, 2017. There is good cause for modifying the existing 

deadline, and the need to do so is no fault of either party. 

The Parties have diligently pursued discovery in this matter. Plaintiffs have served 

interrogatories and document requests. The Parties are conferring over production of class member 

records, and the availability of records in electronic format. Additionally, the parties are in the 

process of finalizing a Protective Order. Said Protective Order is meant to ensure confidentiality 

and of private information. The Parties anticipate that the protective order will facilitate the 

production of class member records and Defendants have indicated that they will be producing 

such records. 

Plaintiffs’ anticipate that the parties will continue to meet and confer over Defendants’ 

document production. Production of records and disclosure of class member contact information is 

necessary prior to moving for class certification. 

Based on the foregoing, the Parties have agreed to request that the Court continue the 

deadline for Plaintiffs to file a Motion for Class Certification to March 30, 2017, and to establish 

the following briefing schedule: 

Opposition: April 27, 2017 

Reply: May 18, 2017 

Hearing: June 6, 2017 at 1:30 p.m. 

Respectfully submitted, 

DATED: July 22, 2016 MALLISON & MARTINEZ
