RECITALS

A. On July 15, 2005, the Court issued its Pretrial (Status) Scheduling Order (“Status 

Order #1”). The Status Order #1 expressly states, “All named defendants have been served and no 

further service is permitted without leave of Court, good cause having been shown.” Status Order #1 

at ¶ I. The Status Order #1 also states, “No joinder of parties or amendments to pleadings is permitted 

without leave of Court, good cause having been shown.” Status Order #1 at ¶ II. 

B. On or about July 28, 2005, Caviar Creator, Inc. caused to be filed and served on 

Sinclair Wilson a cross-complaint naming Sinclair Wilson as a cross-defendant for two causes of 

action. Prior to the filing of Caviar Creator, Inc.’s cross-complaint, Sinclair Wilson was not a party to 

this action. 

C. On September 20, 2005, the Court issued an Amended Pretrial (Status) Scheduling 

Order (“Status Order 2”). The Status Order #2 contained the same respective restrictions as Status 

Order #1, stated supra paragraph “A.” See Status Order #2 at ¶¶ I-II. 

D. As a party brought into this case after the Status Order #1 was issued, Sinclair Wilson 

seeks leave of the Court, in the interests of promoting judicial economy, to file any cross-claims or 

counterclaims along with its responsive pleadings. 

STIPULATION

IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED between the parties, through their respective attorneys of 

record, that Sinclair Wilson has good cause to file and serve any cross-claims and counterclaims, 

should the need arise, in pleadings filed along with its responsive pleadings to the pending crosscomplaint. Said “good cause” does not relate to the merits of any underlying cause of action; rather, 

good cause exists to permit Sinclair Wilson to file and serve such cross-claims or counterclaims. 

IT IS ALSO STIPULATED between the parties, through their respective attorneys of record, 

that Sinclair Wilson has good cause to join any parties, should the need arise, in pleadings filed along 

with its responsive pleadings to the pending cross-complaint. Said “good cause” does not relate to the 

merits of any underlying cause of action; rather, good cause exists to permit Sinclair Wilson to join 

parties in such cross-claims or counterclaims.

IT IS ALSO STIPULATED between the parties, through their respective attorneys of record, 

that there is no opposition to Sinclair Wilson’s request for leave from the Court to file and serve any 

cross-claims and counterclaims, against any current party or joined party, so long as such claims are 

filed with any answer to the pending cross-complaint. 

IT IS FURTHER STIPULATED between the parties, through their respective attorneys of 

record, that the aforementioned stipulations do not constitute waiver of any defense to such crossclaims or counterclaims and any and all affirmative defenses or otherwise responsive pleadings 

allowable under the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure may be asserted against Sinclair Wilson’s 

claims. 

IT IS SO STIPULATED.
