WHEREAS, on March 2, 2016, the Honorable Lucy H. Koh, the presiding judge in the

above-entitled action, referred the parties to a Settlement Conference before the Honorable

Nathaniel Cousins;

WHEREAS, on March 3, 2016, Magistrate Judge Cousins scheduled the Settlement

Conference for April 1, 2016 at 9:30 am;

WHEREAS, pursuant to Magistrate Judge Cousins’ Settlement Conference Standing

Order, all parties and their counsel are required to attend the settlement conference in person, not

by telephone;

WHEREAS, this action was filed as a putative class action on behalf of a putative class of

former Apple iPhone owners, and Plaintiff Adrienne Moore was the named plaintiff;

WHEREAS, on August 4, 2015, the Court denied Plaintiff Adrienne Moore’s motion for

class certification and on November 20, 2015, the Court denied Plaintiff’s motion for leave to file

a motion for reconsideration of the Court’s denial of class certification;

WHEREAS, on December 4, 2015, Plaintiff filed a Rule 23(f) Petition before the United

States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit seeking permission to appeal the district court’s

denial of class certification on an interlocutory basis, and that Petition has yet to be ruled upon by

the Ninth Circuit;

WHEREAS, in support of her motion for class certification, Plaintiff’s expert economist

opined that the averaged damages per individual class member amounted to $3.46;

WHEREAS, given the current posture of the case where class certification has been

denied and no decision on the pending Rule 23(f) Petition has been issued to date, the pertinent

controversy for settlement purposes centers on any amount of attorneys’ fees and costs that may

be offered or agreed upon, as opposed to the alleged de minimis individual damages sustained by

Ms. Moore;

WHEREAS, Plaintiff resides in Los Angeles, works there, and has a son there, such that

traveling to San Jose in order to appear in person at the April 1st Settlement Conference would

pose a burden, particularly when she may be called upon to appear again at the upcoming trial

scheduled for May 9, 2016;

WHEREAS, Plaintiff has given her counsel full authority with respect to the Settlement

Conference and will remain available to engage counsel and the Settlement Conference judge by

telephone during the Settlement Conference;

WHEREAS, counsel for the parties have conferred and agreed that Ms. Moore’s in-person

attendance at the April 1st Settlement Conference may be excused provided she remain available

to telephonically obtain any communications from the Court or counsel during the Settlement

Conference;

The parties to the above-entitled action hereby Stipulate and agree, subject to Court

approval, as follows:

1. Plaintiff Adrienne Moore’s in-person attendance at the April 1, 2016 shall not be

required, provided that Ms. Moore shall remain accessible by telephone to receive any

communications from the Court or counsel during the Settlement Conference.

Respectfully submitted,
