STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER TO CONTINUE CASE MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE 

REED SMITH LLP 

A limited liability partnership formed in the State of Delaware 

Plaintiff Benjamin McPherson (“Plaintiff”) and Defendant United Airlines, Inc. 

(“Defendant,” and collectively with Plaintiff, the “Parties”) jointly submit this Stipulation and 

[Proposed] Order to Continue the current July 9, 2015 Case Management Conference to July 17, 

2015, or as soon thereafter as the matter may be heard. The parties make this request for the 

following reasons: 

1. The Court set a July 10, 2015 Case Management Conference in this matter on April 

28, 2015. (Doc. 15).

2. On June 10, 2015, lead counsel for Defendant served a Second Amended Notice of 

Deposition that noticed the deposition of the plaintiff in another matter for June 9, 2015 in 

Sacramento, California based upon an agreement reached by the parties in that matter. 

3. Lead counsel for Defendant is scheduled to take a break during the deposition to 

attend a telephonic state court case management conference in another matter at 20:30 a.m. on June 

9, 2015. 

4. On June 6, 2015, the Court Clerk issued a Notice advising the parties that the Case 

Management Conference in this matter will be advanced to June 9, 2015. 

5. Lead counsel for Defendant confirmed the June 9, 2015 deposition with Plaintiff’s 

counsel before her receipt of the June 6, 2015 Notice. 

6. Lead counsel for Defendant has been unable to continue the conflicting case state 

court management conference since its receipt of the June 6, 2015 Notice. 

7. Co-counsel for Defendant will be in Fresno, California on June 9, 2015 preparing for 

trial. 

8. The parties’ requested relief does not require a change to any pending deadlines as 

this Court has not yet issued a Case Management Order. 

9. The instant request for a continuance constitutes the parties’ first such request in this 

action.
