STIPULATION AND ORDER TO ENLARGE DEPOSITIONS (C07-00051 MHP)

1. Mr. Becker is a witness likely to possess discoverable information

relating to this action. Plaintiff’s counsel has learned that Mr. Becker is no longer employed

by Contra Costa County, and are working with Defense counsel to locate Mr. Becker so that

he may be deposed. Defense counsel has agreed to undertake reasonable efforts to make

Mr. Becker available for deposition after the close of fact discovery, and Plaintiff proposes

to depose him during the week of February 18, 2008. 

2. The parties have been diligent in their preparation of the case and

their efforts to complete discovery. The parties previously stipulated to enlarge close of fact

discovery cut-off up to and including February 15, 2008, and an Order pursuant to said

Stipulation was filed on January 11, 2008. The parties also previously stipulated to enlarge

the discovery cut-off to accommodate the unavailability of Paul Choroski, so that he too

may be deposed, and an Order pursuant to said Stipulation was filed on January 31, 2008. 

3. The parties are not presently proposing or stipulating to changes in

any other dates.
