JOINT REQUEST FOR ORDER GRANTING 

STIPULATION FOR DISMISSAL; ORDER

THEREON

On January 28, 2015, counsel for all parties to this litigation, which consists of four consolidated 

actions, convened for a day-long mediation before the Honorable Raul A. Ramirez (ret.). Terms of a 

settlement agreement and release were successfully negotiated through the mediation; however, the 

settlement was contingent upon the County of Sacramento Board of Supervisor’s approval and plaintiffs’ 

counsel obtaining the signatures and releases of all plaintiffs to these consolidated actions.

On February 24, 2015, the County of Sacramento Board of Supervisors approved the terms of the 

parties’ negotiated settlement. 

During the months of February and March, plaintiffs’ counsel searched for and located the several 

plaintiffs to these actions, including some plaintiffs who resided or were incarcerated out-of-state, for the 

purpose of obtaining their consent to the terms of the negotiated settlement.

On April 3, 2015, the terms of the contingent settlement agreement between the parties were 

satisfied, and the settlement agreement was entered. A stipulation for dismissal was drafted and 

distributed to all parties’ counsel for permission to sign and file.

On April 5, 2015, plaintiffs’ counsel obtained permission to file, and did file, a stipulation for 

dismissal of these four consolidated actions, pursuant to the terms of the negotiated settlement and
