STIPULATION & ORDER REGARDING DISMISSAL AND AMENDMENT OF COMPLAINT 

2. Plaintiffs will file a Second Amended Complaint in the case, 

naming Pacific Bell as the only defendant. Pacific Bell agrees 

that its addition as a defendant relates back to the original date 

of filing of the initial complaint in this action. 

3. Counsel for Pacific Bell will accept service on its behalf within 

five days of Plaintiffs’ counsel providing them with a copy of 

the filed Second Amended Complaint. Pacific Bell will then 

have the time permitted by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 

to answer or otherwise respond to the Second Amended 

Complaint. 

4. In connection with the dismissal of AT&T, Inc. and SBC 

Communications, Inc., each party shall bear its own costs and 

attorneys’ fees.
