1. The above-entitled matter is presently set for preliminary pretrial conference and 

trial setting before the Honorable James Ware on August 6, 2007. 

2. Plaintiff Jeffrey Dannemiller died on March 5, 2007, from causes unrelated to the 

instant action. 

3. Plaintiff's heirs at law are his parents, Dolores Dannemiller, 19929 Creekside 

Lane, Salinas CA 93908, and Dr. Gerald Dannemiller, 88 Harper Canyon Road, Salinas CA 

93908. Plaintiff had no issue at the time of his death. 

4. On June 19, 2007, and June 25, 2007, respectively, a Suggestion of Death 

pursuant to Rule 25(a)(1) was served on each of Plaintiff's parents and heirs at law, and filed 

with this Court along with affidavit of personal service on each. Proof of death of Plaintiff is 

attached to the Suggestion of Death. 

5. We are informed and believe that neither lawful heir of Plaintiff Dannemiller 

wishes to substitute him or herself as Plaintiff herein in order to continue the prosecution of this 

case. 

6. Accordingly, it has been agreed that Plaintiff will dismiss the matter in its entirety 

with prejudice in consideration for a waiver of costs and attorneys fees by Defendants herein. 

7. Appropriate documents to effect the stipulation and dismissal have not been 

prepared as of this time, but the parties have agreed in principle to the dismissal on said terms. 

The parties therefore respectfully request that the preliminary pretrial conference and trial
