Pursuant to Northern District Local Rule 16-2(d) and (e) and Rule 7-12, plaintiff SAN 

JOSE OPTIONS INC. (“Plaintiff”) and defendant HO CHUNG YEH (“Defendant”), by and 

through their counsel of record, stipulate as follows:

RECITALS

1. On October 29, 2014 [docket 39], this Court continued the Case Management 

Conference to March 17, 2015, so that the parties could pursue potential resolution of this matter 

through alternative dispute resolution rather than incurring additional fees and costs on litigation;

2. On February 26, 2015 [docket 44], the Northern District appointed the Hon. 

Suzanne Nusbaum as mediator in this matter;

3. On March 5, 2015, Judge Nusbaum conducted an initial conference call with 

counsel for the parties wherein the parties, among other things, agreed to mediate the case on 

March 17, 2015, beginning at 9:00 a.m. in San Mateo, California. The parties agreed to mediate 

on that date since Defendant had to be out of the United States for approximately 60 to 75 days 

beginning on March 20, 2015;

4. On March 6, 2015, Judge Nusbaum informed counsel for the parties that she 

needed to canceled the March 17, 2015 mediation due to a death in her family;

5. Later on March 6, 2015, Judge Nusbaum provided the parties with additional 

mediation dates, including June 12, 2015;

6. On March 10, 2015, Defendant’s counsel notified Judge Nusbaum that Defendant 

was available to mediate the case on June 12, 2015;

7. On March 11, 2015, Plaintiff’s counsel notified Judge Nusbaum that Plaintiff was 

available to mediate the case on June 12, 2015;

8. On March 12, 2015, Judge Nusbaum informed counsel for the parties that she was 

no longer available on June 12, 2015 for mediation and provided the following alternative dates in 

the month of June: 4, 5, 22, 24, 25, 26, 29 or 30;

9. On March 13, 2015, counsel for Plaintiff and Defendant notified Judge Nusbaum 

that both parties were available to mediate the case on June 22 or June 24, 2015;

10. Also, on March 13, 2015, Judge Nusbaum confirmed the mediation date of June 22,

2015, to be conducted at Plaintiff’s counsel’s office.

11. Plaintiff and Defendant want to try to mediate this case first before either side 

incurs significant litigation fees and costs;

12. Counsel for Defendant is scheduled to commence a five day trial in Southern 

California on July 6, 2015;

13. Given that (a) the parties are still trying to set a mediation date for June of 2015 but 

have been unable to due to no fault of their own, (b) are working with Judge Nusbaum and her 

calendar to set a mediation date as soon as possible, (c) it remains unlikely that mediation will be 

completed in this matter until the end of June of 2015, counsel for Plaintiff and Defendant would 

respectfully request that the Case Management Conference be continued to July 21, 2015, or any 

date thereafter that is convenient for the Court’s calendar.

STIPULATION

Based on the foregoing Recitals, and with the Court’s approval, Plaintiff and Defendant 

agree and stipulate as follows:

1. The Case Management Conference presently scheduled for March 17, 2015, at 1:30 

p.m. shall, with the Court’s approval, be continued to July 21, 2015 at 1:30 p.m. or any convenient 

date thereafter;

2. The parties shall submit a joint case management statement 7 days in advance of 

the date of the further Case Management Conference; and

3. All deadlines related to the case management conference date shall be reset to 

coordinate with the new initial case management conference date set by the Court.

IT SO STIPULATED.
