STIPULATION AND JOINT MOTION

Case No. C 04 4632 SI

All parties hereto, by and through their respective, undersigned counsel, hereby stipulate 

to, and jointly move for, an order amending the Order of the Court dated August 29, 2006, for the 

limited purpose of allowing one deposition to be taken after the September 22, 2006 non-expert 

discovery cut-off. The deposition will be of non-party A. Answer, Inc., through its corporate 

representative Patsy Reese, and counsel for all parties, including counsel for A. Answer, Inc., 

have agreed to conduct the deposition on September 26, 2006. Counsel for BART has properly 

subpoenaed A. Answer, Inc. and provided notice to defense counsel of the deposition. The 

deposition originally had been scheduled to occur in August, but the witness and its counsel were 

not available. BART’s efforts to reschedule the deposition for a date before September 22nd 

have been unsuccessful due to the unavailability of the corporate representative witness and 

counsel for A. Answer, Inc., both of whom are available and have agreed to appear for the 

deposition on September 26, 2006. 

This Stipulation shall not alter any other dates or deadlines established in the Court’s 

scheduling Order dated August 29, 2006, or any other terms of that Order or the Amended 

Pretrial Preparation Order of June 16, 2006. 

In support of, and as grounds for, this Motion, the parties state as follows: 

(1) Despite diligent efforts to schedule and complete the deposition of A. Answer, Inc. 

prior to the current September 22, 2006 deadline, the parties were unable to complete the 

deposition, primarily because of pre-paid vacation, witness unavailability and other scheduling 

conflicts of counsel for A. Answer, Inc. and its corporate representative witness.
