December 30, 2009 and requiring Defendants to answer or move to dismiss within 20 days 

thereafter, or by January 19, 2010.

On December 30, 2009, Plaintiff filed and served her SAC which, for the first time in this 

action, names as a defendant Deutsche Bank National Trust Company as Trustee for Morgan 

Stanley ABS Capital 1, Inc. Trust 2006-WM-2 (“Deutsche Bank”). Plaintiff believes that 

Deutsche Bank will be served with the SAC by January 31, 2010. Presuming service is 

effectuated by that date, Deutsche Bank be entitled 20 days to respond to the SAC, or until 

February 22, 2010. Because Wells Fargo services Plaintiff’s loan for Deutsche Bank, Wells 

Fargo may defend this action on its behalf. If so, Wells Fargo and Deutsche Bank will be 

represented by the same counsel and will be asserting the same or similar interests and defenses 

to this action.

WHEREFORE, in the interests of judicial efficiency and to permit the coordination of a 

briefing schedule and hearing date on the anticipated motions to dismiss, the Parties agree and 

hereby stipulate that, the deadline for Defendants to file and serve a response to the SAC should 

be extended until February 22, 2010.

Plaintiff and Wells Fargo have stipulated to one prior extension of time to respond to the 

initial complaint. This stipulation is without prejudice to the rights, claims, defenses and 

arguments of all parties.
