STIPULATED REQUEST TO EXTEND 

DEADLINE TO CONDUCT MEDIATION 

REQUIRED BY GENERAL ORDER 56; 

ORDER 

 Plaintiff, Francisca M. Moralez (“Plaintiff”), and Defendant Mark Anthony De La O 

(“Defendant,” and together with Plaintiff, “the Parties”), hereby stipulate as follows: 

1. This matter arises out of Plaintiff’s claim that she visited property owned and/or 

operated by Defendant and encountered conditions which prevented her full and equal access 

thereto as a result of her disabilities. Plaintiff alleges that Defendant violated Title III of the 

Americans with Disabilities Act and related California law. This matter therefore proceeds 

under this District’s General Order 56 and related Scheduling Order. 

2. The Parties timely conducted the required joint site inspection of the subject 

property on August 29, 2018. When a settlement was not reached, Plaintiff filed a Notice of 

Need for Mediation on October 10, 2018 (Dkt. 15). On December 13, 2018, the Court

appointed mediator Robert Pohls (“the Mediator”) (Dkt. 18). 

3. Although not set forth in the Scheduling Order (Doc. 4), General Order 56 

requires that the mediation take place “in no event later than 90 days from the Date the Notice 

of Need for Mediation is filed, unless otherwise ordered by the assigned judge.” General Order 

56, ¶ 7. Because the Notice of Need for Mediation was filed on October 10, 2018, the last date 

by which the mediation can take place without an Order of the Court is January 8, 2018. 

4. The Parties will not be available before January 8, 2019; nevertheless, Counsel 

for the Parties and the mediator have agreed to extend the deadline to conduct mediation to 

January 25, 2019. 

5. Therefore, subject to Court approval, the Parties request that the last date for the 

mediation required by General Order 56 be continued from January 8, 2019 to January 25, 

2019. 

 IT IS SO STIPULATED.
