STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER CONTINUING 

CASE MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE 

-2- HOWREY LLP

The initial Case Management Conference in this matter is currently scheduled for January 25, 

2007, at 2:30 p.m. Lucent Technologies, Inc. (“Lucent”) and Solectron Corporation, Inc. (“Solectron”) 

have requested and recently received extensions of time to respond to DiCon Fiberoptics, Inc.’s 

(“DiCon”) pleadings filed on November 13, 2006. 

On November 13, 2006, DiCon filed its Answer and Counterclaims responsive to Lucent’s 

Complaint. On December 8, 2006, Lucent filed a Stipulation and Proposed Order to Extend Time to 

File a Responsive Pleading. On December 12, 2006, the Court granted the proposed Order, extending 

the time for Lucent’s response to January 5, 2007. 

On November 13, 2006, DiCon also filed a Third-Party Complaint against Solectron. On 

December 5, 2006, Solectron filed a Stipulation Extending Time for Solectron’s response to DiCon’s 

Third-Party Complaint. The stipulation extended the time for Solectron’s response to January 12, 

2007. 

The only other extensions of time have occurred via stipulations between Lucent and DiCon 

concerning DiCon’s time to respond to Lucent’s Complaint. Those stipulations were filed with the 

Court on September 21, 2006, October 13, 2006, and October 25, 2006, respectively. 

Given that the pleadings are not yet finalized, the parties jointly request that the Case 

Management Conference be continued from January 25, 2007, to March 15, 2007. Continuing the 

Case Management Conference will promote efficiency and judicial economy by providing time for the 

pleadings to be set before the parties plan and enter the discovery phase of this case. Under the current 

schedule, the parties must complete their Rule 26 Conference by January 4, 2007 — before Lucent and 

Solectron respond to DiCon’s Counterclaims or Third Party Complaint. Also, the joint Case 

Management Conference Statement and Discovery Report is due on January 18, 2007, just six days 

after Solectron files its responsive pleading. The parties believe that the Rule 26 meet and confer 

process and the subsequent scheduling for the case will proceed more efficiently if the pleadings are 

already finalized. 

Accordingly, the parties submit this Stipulation, pursuant to Civil Local Rule 6-2(a), to 

continue the Case Management Conference to March 15, 2007, at 2:30 p.m.
