WHEREAS, on December 4, 2015, Defendants removed this action (the “Albano Action”) 

(Dkt. No. 6) and two other substantially similar actions: Oklahoma Police Pension & Retirement 

System v. Sientra, Inc., No. 3:15-cv-5549-EJD (the “Oklahoma Police Action”), and Kleiman v. 

Sientra, Inc., No. CIV 536313 (Cal. Super. Ct., San Mateo Cty. Nov. 19, 2015) (the “Kleiman

Action”) (collectively, the “Related Actions”); 

WHEREAS, on December 8, 2015, Defendants filed an administrative motion to relate the 

Albano Action to the Kleiman Action and the Oklahoma Police Action, which motion is unopposed 

and presently pending before the Honorable Edward J. Davila; 

WHEREAS, on December 15, 2015, and December 16, 2015, Plaintiffs in all three actions 

moved to remand the actions to state court; 

WHEREAS, Defendants have requested an extension of time to respond to the remand 

motions to accommodate counsel’s holiday schedules; and 

WHEREAS, the parties have met and conferred and agreed: (a) to provide Defendants 

additional time to file and serve their responses to the remand motion; and (b) to consent to the 

determination of the motions to remand without oral argument or, if the Court determines that oral 

argument would be beneficial, to jointly request that the Court advance the time for the hearing on 

the motions to remand to the earliest date that is convenient to the Court following the completion of 

briefing on the motions. 

NOW, THEREFORE, THE PARTIES HAVE STIPULATED AND AGREED, SUBJECT 

TO THE COURT’S APPROVAL, as follows: 

1. Defendants shall have until January 19, 2016 to file any briefs in opposition to the 

motions to remand; 

2. Plaintiffs in each of the Related Actions shall have until January 26, 2016 to reply to 

any briefs filed in opposition to the motions to remand; and 

3. The parties jointly consent to determination of the motions to remand based on the 

papers submitted without oral argument; or
