IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

Sarmad Syed, an individual, on behalf of himself

and all others similarly situated,

Plaintiff,

vs.

M-I LLC, a Delaware Limited Liability Company,

PreCheck, Inc., a Texas Corporation, and Does 1

through 10,

Defendants.

Case No. 1:14-cv-00742-WBS-BAM

Assigned for all purposes to:

Hon. William B. Shubb, Courtroom 5

STIPULATION TO CONTINUE FINAL 

APPROVAL HEARING DATE;

[Proposed] ORDER

COME NOW, Plaintiff SARMAD SYED and Defendant PRECHECK, INC. (“PreCheck” or 

“Defendant”), by and through their undersigned counsel, and hereby stipulate to, and move the Court for 

an order continuing the Final Approval Hearing to a date after January 12, 2016.

On September 18, 2015, the Court entered its Order Preliminarily Approving Class Action 

Settlement [Dkt. No. 73] (“Preliminary Approval Order”). The Preliminary Approval Order set a Final 

Approval Hearing date of December 14, 2015, at 2:00 p.m.

Pursuant to the Class Action Fairness Act (“CAFA”), 28 U.S.C. sections 1332(d), 1453, and 

1711–1715, the parties are to provide notice of their class action settlement to the appropriate 

Attorney(s) General. The CAFA Notice was sent on October 13, 2015. CAFA requires that the final 

approval of a class action settlement take place after 90 days from the notice. 28 U.S.C. section

1715 provides:

(d) Final Approval.— An order giving final approval of a proposed settlement may not be 

issued earlier than 90 days after the later of the dates on which the appropriate Federal 

official and the appropriate State official are served with the notice required under 

subsection (b). 

Id., emphasis added.

Given that CAFA Notice was sent on October 13, 2015, the current Final Approval Hearing date of 

December 14, 2015, does not comply with 28 U.S.C. section 1715. 

The parties therefore need and respectfully request a new Final Approval Hearing date of no 

earlier than January 12, 2016, to comply with CAFA. The parties need the new Final Approval Hearing 

date to be published on the notices to be sent out to the class members. 

The parties hereby stipulate to, and move for, the following:

1. That the Final Approval Hearing date, currently set for December 14, 2015, be continued 

to a date no earlier than January 12, 2016.

IT IS SO STIPULATED.
