1 JOINT STIPULATION

2 WHEREAS Plaitiffs Jackie Blennis and David Briclmer ("Plaintiffs") commenced this

3 action by filing a Complaint on Januar 17, 2007, and serving the Complaint on Defendant Hewlett4 Packard Company ("Defendant")' on May 1, 2007;

5 WHREAS on November 2,2007, the Cour held a hearg on Defendant's Motion to

6 Dismiss and continued the scheduled case management conference to January 18,2008 at 10:30 a.m.;

7 WHREAS good cause exists for approving this Joint Stipulation, because, as explained in

8 the accompanying declarations of Alfredo Torrjos and Michael H. Dore, continuing these deadlines

9 would fuher judicial economy by presumably allowing the paries to address the topics specified in

10 the Federal Rules ofCivI1 Procedure and Local Rules subsequent to the Court's ruling on

11 Defendant's Motion to Dismiss, thus enabling the paries to have a better sense of the scope of the

12 case.

13 AGCORDINGLY, pursuant to Local Rule 6-1(b), the pares; by and through their counsel of

14 record, hereby stipulate to, and request the Cour's approval of the following:

DECLARTION OF MICHAEL H. DORE

I, Michael H. Dore, declare as follows:

1. I am an attorney admitted to practice law before all cours of the State of Californa

4 and I intend to submit an application to become a member of the bar ofthis Cour. I am an associate

5 in the law firm of Gibson, Dun & Crutcher LLP, and I am one of the attorneys responsible for the

6 representation of Defendant Hewlett-Packard Company ("HP") in the action entitled Jackie Blennis

7 and David Brickner, et al. v. Hewlett-Packard Company, et al. (N.D. CaL. Case No. C 07-00333-

8 RMW). Pursuant to Local Rule 6-2(a), I submit this declaration in support of the paries' Joint

9 Stipulation and (Proposed) Order Continuing Case Management Conference (the "Joint Stipulation").

10 Unless otherwise stated, the following facts are within my personal knowledge and, if called and

11 sworn as a witness, I could and would testify competently thereto.

12 2. HP was served with Plaintiffs Complaint in the above-referenced action on May 1,

13 2007. On November 2,2007, the Cour held a hearing on Defendant's Motion to Dismiss and

14 continued the scheduled case management conference to Januar 18,2008 at 10:30 a.m.

15 3. The Reasons for the Requested Enlargement or Shortening of Time (Local Rule 6-

16 2(a)(1)). I believe that judicial efficiency would best be served by holding the case management

17 conference subsequent to the Cour's ruling on Defendant's motion to dismiss, which would allow

18 the paries to have a better sense of the scope of the case when attempting to address the varous

19 topics and deadlines raised in the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and this Cour's Local Rules.

20 4. In addition, Defendant has requested that any rescheduled conference take place in

21 March 2008 because I am scheduled to represent a client in an arbitration in an unrelated matter that

22 is scheduled to take place from February 11,2008 until Februar 29, 2008 in Los Angeles,

23 California.

24 5. Prior Time Modifications in this Case (Local Rule 6-2(a)(2)). Prior to the November

25 2,2007 hearing on Defendant's Motion to Dismiss, the paries had requested that the initial case

26 management conference be continued until the date previously set for the hearing on Defendant's

27 Motion to Dismiss (i.e., August 17,2007). That request was granted.

2 Rule 6-2(a)(3)). The requested extensions in the Joint Stipulation would move the scheduled Case

3 Management Conference from Januar 18, 2008, to March 14, 2008. As a result, this would also

4 alter the following deadlines:

DECLARTION OF ALFRDO TORRJOS

I, Alfredo Torrjos, declare as follows:

1. I am an attorney admitted to practice law before all cours of the State of Californa. I

4 am an associate in the law firm of Kabateck Brown Kellner LLP, and I am one of the attorneys

5 responsible for the representation of Plaintiffs Jackie Blennis and David Brickner ("Plaintiffs") in the

6 action entitled Jackie Blennis and David Brickner, et al. v. Hewlett-Packard Company, et al. (N.D.

7 CaL. Case No. C 07-00333-RMW). Pursuant to Local Rule 6-2(a), I submit this declaration in

8 support of the paries' Joint Stipulation and (Proposed) Order Continuing Case Management

9 Conference (the "Joint Stipulation"). Unless otherwise stated, the following facts are within my

10 personal knowledge and, if called and sworn as a witness, I could and would testify competently

11 thereto.

12 2. Plaintiffs served their Complaint on HP on May 1, 2007. On November 2,2007, the

13 Cour held a hearing on Defendant's Motion to Dismiss and continued the scheduled case

14 management conference to Januar 18,2008 at 10:30 a.m.

15 3. The Reasons for the Requested Enlargement or Shortening of Time (Local Rule 6-

16 2(a)(1)). I believe that judicial effciency would best be served by holding the case management

17 conference subsequent to the Cour's ruing on Defendant's motion to dismiss, which would allow

18 the paries to have a better sense of the scope ofthe case when attempting to address the varous

19 topics and deadlines raised in the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and this Cour's Local Rules.

20 4. Prior Time Modifications in this Case (Local Rule 6-2(a)(2)). Prior to the November 2,

21 2007 hearing on Defendant's Motion to Dismiss, the paries had requested that the initial case

22 management conference be continued until the date previously set for the hearing on Defendant's

23 Motion to Dismiss (i.e., August 17,2007). That request was granted.

24 5. Effect ofthe Requested Time Modification on the Schedule for the Case (Local Rule 6-

25 2(a)(3)). The requested extensions in the Joint Stipulation would move the scheduled Case

26 Management Conference from Januar 18, 2008, to March 14,2008. As a result, this would also
