STIPULATION AND ORDER CONTINUING SETTLEMENT CONFERENCE

Defendants have been proceeding diligently and in good faith to interview several of 

Plaintiffs’ witnesses. However, Defendants’ investigator has been unable to locate three 

of Plaintiffs’ witnesses. Plaintiff has provided Defendants with new contact information for 

these witnesses and Defendants are in the process of attempting to contact and interview 

these witnesses. However, Defendants will be unable to depose (if Defendants need to) 

these witnesses prior to the scheduled Settlement Conference. Defendants want to 

interview and possibly depose these witnesses in order to evaluate any potential 

settlement in this matter. 

The parties, through their counsel of record, therefore stipulate that the Settlement 

Conference in this matter be continued to Thursday, August 10, 2006 at 11:00 a.m. before 

The Honorable Magistrate Judge Spero in Courtroom E of the above entitled court. 

IT IS SO STIPULATED.
