JOINT STIPULATION EXTENDING 

THE DEADLINE FOR CONDUCTING 

AN EARLY NEUTRAL EVALUTION 

SESSION; AND [PROPOSED] ORDER

[ADR Local Rule 5-5(a)]

Plaintiff Florence Davis, by her attorney Geoffrey Spellberg of Meyers, Nave, Riback, 

Silver & Wilson, and Defendants Operating Engineers Local Union No. 3 and John Bonilla by 

their attorney Alan G. Crowley of Weinberg, Roger & Rosenfeld, jointly stipulate to extend the 

deadline for conducting an early neutral evaluation session by ninety (90) days for the following 

good cause:

1. The parties jointly had a phone conference with the ENE evaluator, Ms. Anna Mary 

E. Gannon, on July 11, 2005, wherein they tentatively agreed to an early neutral evaluation session 

on either August 17 or 18, 2005. 

2. Due to various defendant representatives being on vacation, Defendants were not 

able to confirm their availability for an August 18th ENE session until July 28th.

3. On July 30, 2005, the ENE evaluator informed the parties August 18th and 19th 

were no longer available. She added that she was in the process of changing employer law firms, 

had not been able to hold those dates for the parties, and offered to hold the ENE session on either 

August 11 or 12, 2005. 

4. On such short notice, the parties are unable to participate in an ENE session on 

August 11th or 12th.

5. While the parties would still like to participate in ENE, they are unable to schedule 

a mutually convenient date prior to the currently scheduled deadline of August 18th.

6. This is the first time the parties have requested an extension of the ENE deadline in 

this case.

7. For these reasons, the parties are in agreement that the deadline to complete the 

early neutral evaluation session should be extended by ninety (90) days. Ninety days would allow 

the parties to conduct additional discovery, which would help make the ENE session more 

meaningful.

8. Therefore, pursuant to Civil Local Rule 7-1 and 7-11 and ADR Local Rule 5-5, the 

parties jointly request the Court extend the deadline for conducting the early neutral evaluation by 

ninety (90) days, which is by the date of November 16, 2005.
