Plaintiff Vincent Reynov (“Plaintiff”) and Defendant Claims Services Group, Inc. 

(“Defendant”), by and through their respective attorneys of record, hereby stipulate and agree to the 

following: 

1. On September 15, 2006, the parties attended an initial Case Management Conference 

(“CMC”). On September 27, 2006, the Court issued a Minute Order and Case Management Order 

which set forth various pre-trial deadlines including, among other things, motion filing and hearing 

deadlines and discovery cut-off dates. 

 2. On October 16, 2006, Plaintiff filed a motion for leave to file an amended complaint to 

add, among other things, a “Jeffrey Sparks” as a new plaintiff and “ADP, Inc.” as a new defendant. 

Defendant opposed Plaintiff’s motion on various grounds including, among others, Defendant’s 

contention that Sparks and ADP, Inc. are not proper parties in this case. 

 3. On December 22, 2006, the Court granted Plaintiff’s motion and ordered Plaintiff to file 

an amended complaint, if any, no later than January 16, 2007. The Court stated that if Plaintiff filed an 

amended complaint, all of the deadlines in the September 27, 2006 Minute Order and Case Management 

Order would be vacated. 

 4. At the hearing on Plaintiff’s motion for leave to amend, the Court suggested that 

Defendant provide additional information to Plaintiff regarding Defendant’s position that Sparks and 

ADP, Inc. are not proper parties. In accordance with the Court’s suggestion, Defendant provided such 

information to Plaintiff’s counsel. The issue was not resolved, however, until January 17, 2007 when 

counsel for Plaintiff’s counsel filed a separate action on behalf of Sparks. 

 5. On January 17, 2007, the Court issued a Scheduling Order stating that because Plaintiff 

did not file an amended complaint, this case would proceed according to the dates in the September 27 

Minute Order and Case Management Order.

 6. The parties have been working diligently to schedule and coordinate depositions in this 

case. Due to scheduling conflicts and certain other unique circumstances, however, depositions cannot 

commence until February, after the current discovery cut-off date of January 30, 2007. The parties, 

therefore, require additional time to complete written and deposition discovery. Because the conclusion 

of pre-certification discovery should be rescheduled, the parties believe that the previously scheduled 

motion hearing and ADR dates should also be rescheduled. Unless the existing Scheduling Order is 

amended, the parties will be prevented from adequately preparing for and briefing their respective 

dispositive and class certification motions. 

 7. This is the first extension requested by the parties, and the extension is sought in good 

faith and after meeting and conferring on the issues. 

 Based on these above-stipulations, Plaintiff and Defendant ask that the Court enter an order 

amending the existing Scheduling Order as follows: 

 1. All pre-class certification discovery shall be completed on or before March 23, 2007. 

 2. Early case-dispositive motions will be heard at 10:00 a.m. on or before April 27, 2007. 

 3. The parties will complete a Court-connected mediation session no later than May 18, 

2007, and as is convenient to the mediator’s schedule. 

 4. Plaintiff is to file a motion for class certification and notice it for hearing on July 27, 

2007 at 10:00 a.m. 

 It is so stipulated,
