IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

STEVEN PARKER,

Plaintiff,

 v.

STX PAN OCEAN CO., LTD.,

Defendant. /

No. C 09-05922 WHA

ORDER REGARDING MOTION

FOR LEAVE TO FILE FIRST

AMENDED COMPLAINT

It is always well and good for one defendant to desire company in its potential liability

and to stipulate to adding additional deep pockets, but has the additional deep pocket (C&H

Sugar) stipulated to being so generously joined, after, it should be said, the discovery cutoff

and within three months of trial? This point should be addressed in briefing on the pending

motion, not to mention why it took so long for counsel to find out about C&H’s alleged role.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: January 3, 2011. WILLIAM ALSUP
