Stipulated Request and Proposed Order

THE PARTIES, BY AND THROUGH THEIR COUNSEL, HEREBY STIPULATE

AND AGREE AS FOLLOWS:

1. On May 23, 2005, the Court held a hearing on Defendants’ motion for

appointment of a special master. The following Order was then entered in the Court’s Minutes:

After Oral Argument: The Court instructs the parties to meet and confer and

to file within 30 days a proposed reference. And to the extent that they

cannot agree, to provide the Court with those portions of the reference which

they disagree with. The parties are also directed to suggest to the Court the

means by which a special master shall be selected. The Court wishes to

emphasize that the master is supplemental to the methods set forth in the

decree and is not intended to displace those procedures.

(Docket No. 1213.)

2. The parties have begun the process of meeting and conferring regarding the terms

of a proposed reference, and manner for selection. The parties have, however, also met and

conferred several times since the May 23 hearing regarding specifics of the procedures that were

to be implemented by July 1, 2005 under the Stipulated Order for Permanent Injunctive Relief

(“Permanent Injunction”). The parties have also met and conferred on several other issues

including the parolee’s attorney conducting parole office field file reviews and the Court’s June

8, 2005 Order regarding remedial sanctions. Because of the time and attention needed for these

issues, and due to vacation schedules of the parties’ attorneys, the parties have not yet agreed to

the specific terms of reference or a method of selecting a Special Master. The parties have

agreed to request from the Court a 21-day extension of time for this process. The parties do not

anticipate a need for any other extensions for this issue.

3. The parties have previously sought and obtained a thirty (30) day extension of

time to complete this process.

4. The parties do not seek any extension or delay in implementation of the

procedures required by the Permanent Injunction, or any delay or suspension of the monitoring

and enforcement procedures set forth in Paragraphs 15-29 of the Permanent Injunction. In order

to move this process forward, the parties will begin discussions regarding the choice of a Special

Master candidate, with the goal of submitting a stipulated candidate to the Court or separate

candidate lists by or shortly after August 12, 2005.
