Magistrate Judge Joseph C. Spero 

United States District Court 

Northern District of California 

450 Golden Gate Avenue 

San Francisco, CA 94102 

RE: Cross vs. County of Santa Cruz, et al,. 

 U.S.D.C., Northern Division, Case No. C06-04891 

Dear Judge Spero: 

 This office represents the Plaintiffs in the above-entitled matter. Plaintiff Gregory 

Cross, the decedent’s brother, will be unable to personally attend the Mandatory Settlement 

Conference scheduled for this Wednesday, February 6 due to a previously scheduled trip that 

will take him out of the country. Our other three clients will personally attend. I have 

conferred with opposing counsel and they have no objection to Greg Cross’ absence. I am 

asking for permission for Gregory Cross to attend by telephone. 

 We apologize for the delay in advising the Court of this situation, however I was out of 

the office last week, and my assistant had fallen ill last week and was out of the office as well. 

We look forward to the Court’s reply to this issue. Thank you for your kind consideration in 

this regard. 

Very truly yours, 

/s/ - “Andrew C. Schwartz”
