proceedings in this matter in which the California Department of Corrections and 

Rehabilitation (CDCR) appeared as a non-party, including, without limitation, Plaintiff’s 

attempts to enforce subpoenas directed by him to CDCR, and the Court’s orders regarding 

such discovery. 

3. Certain proceedings relating to such non-party discovery dispute, and plaintiffs’ 

claims and potential claims against CDCR for remedies and other relief for alleged 

discovery violations by CDCR were pending before Magistrate Judge Zimmerman before 

the trial commenced, and were continued by Magistrate Judge Zimmerman to an indefinite 

date after the conclusion of the trial. It is not the intention of the Plaintiff or of Defendant 

Rogelio Garcia to foreclose Plaintiff or his attorneys from pursuing such claims against 

CDCR and/or its employees or agents. 

 4. Plaintiff and Defendant agree that a Magistrate Judge may resolve any disputes 

arising from the parties’ stipulation of settlement and mutual general release. 

5. Subject to the above limitations, Plaintiff and Defendant jointly request that the 

Court dismiss the action with prejudice, retaining only such limited jurisdiction as is 

consistent with the foregoing.
