The Parties hereby submit this Joint Case Management Conference 

Statement.

On February 3, 2015, the Court issued its Order granting in part and denying 

in part Defendants’ Motion to Compel Arbitration (Dkt. # 39). On March 6, 2015 at 

the Parties’ request the Court reset the further case management conference from 

March 26, 2015 to December 17, 2015 and directed the Parties to file an updated 

Joint Report by December 10. (Dkt. # 55).

On February 27, 2015 Defendants filed their Notice of Appeal of the Court’s 

Order denying Defendants’ motion to compel individual arbitrations of Plaintiff’s 

Second Cause of Action under the California Private Attorney General Act, 

(“PAGA”). On August 10, 2015, Defendants submitted their Opening Brief with 

the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit Case. No. 15-15366. On 

October 23, Plaintiff submitted her Answering Brief with the Ninth Circuit. 

Defendants’ Reply Brief is due on December 4. 

Defendants’ appeal is undecided. The Ninth Circuit has not scheduled the 

date for oral argument. 

Consequently, the Parties request that the further case management 

conference be continued from December 17, 2015 by six months pending resolution 

of Defendants’ appeal.
