UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

KIM KOCH, et al.,

Plaintiffs,

CASE NO: 05-CV-2229 W (AJB)

ORDER GRANTING JOINT

MOTION TO STAY

PROCEEDINGS PENDING

SETTLEMENT DISCUSSIONS

 v.

GATEWAY, INC.,

Defendant.

On September 4, 2007, the parties filed a joint motion to stay this matter. 

According to the motion, the parties have engaged in productive settlement discussions,

and have structured a tentative settlement. However, Defendant’s management has

been unable to approve the tentative settlement because of a pending purchase of

Defendant, and Defendant’s management requires additional time to review the

tentative settlement.

Accordingly, good cause appearing, the Court hereby GRANTS the motion to

stay and orders as follows:

1. All discovery in the action is stayed pending Defendant’s decision on the

tentative settlement.
