 Plaintiff, 

 vs. 

SERGEANT JASON FOX, et al,

 Defendants. 

Case No. C05-1978 CW 

STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] 

ORDER TO VACATE PRE-TRIAL 

CONFERENCE AND TRIAL DATES 

Date Action Filed: April 18, 2005 

Trial Date: February 12, 2007 

Plaintiff Andrew Marconi and Defendants Jason Fox, Ian Furminger, Simon Chan and 

City and County of San Francisco through their undersigned counsel hereby stipulate and agree: 

1. On November 15, 2006 the parties filed a Notice of Pending Settlement and Joint 

Motion by the Parties Seeking Leave to Temporarily Suspend Litigation. The parties submit this 

stipulation in further support of that motion. 

2. The parties have reached a settlement agreement and anticipate concluding 

litigation in this lawsuit in its entirety, pending approvals by appropriate officials. The approval 

process for lawsuits of this nature for these parties typically takes between 12 and 16 weeks to 

complete. The process for obtaining necessary approvals began upon the parties' Notice of their 

settlement agreement to this Court. That process is well under way, but is not yet complete. The 

parties have received some, but not all of the necessary approvals. The parties anticipate that the 

approval process will be completed within the next four to six weeks.

3. The parties are not in a position to file a dismissal of this lawsuit until final 

approvals of their settlement agreement have been obtained. While the parties' counsel currently 

have no reason to believe that the settlement will not be finalized, they do not believe that they 

will be able to obtain the necessary approvals to finalize it in advance of the pre-trial conference 

on February 2, 2007 or the trial set for February 12, 2007. 

4. The parties agree that it is in the best interest of all parties involved to vacate the 

dates set for the pre-trial conference and trial, so that the parties may have the time to secure the 

necessary approvals. If the parties are forced to move forward on the current calendar, then they 

will not be able to settle the case as anticipated. In addition, based on the settlement agreement 

(contingent upon approvals) and in order to put themselves in a position to reach an agreement, 

the parties agreed to stop incurring costs and fees preparing for trial. The parties agree that 

unnecessary time, expense and judicial resources can be avoided if the Court gives the parties the 

opportunity to finalize the settlement. 

5. The parties stipulate and agree to seek an order vacating the dates for the February 

2, 2007 pre-trial conference and February 12, 2007 trial and setting a further case management 

conference for March 9, 2007 at 1:30 p.m.
