STIPULATION FOR A CONTINUANCE AND STAY OF LITIGATION 

On June 2, 2016, the Parties to this litigation attended a settlement conference before 

Magistrate Judge Sallie Kim. (ECF No. 101.) Although the Parties did not settle, they will 

continue discussions and will attend a second settlement conference with Judge Kim on August 8, 

2016. (ECF No. 101.) In furtherance of continued discussions and in anticipation of reaching a 

settlement, Plaintiffs MIHAIL SLAVKOV, NIKOLA VLAOVIC, and MARTIN ARNAUDOV 

(“Plaintiffs”) and Defendants FAST WATER HEATER PARTNERS I, LP dba Fast Water Heater 

Company; FWH ACQUISITION COMPANY, LLC dba Fast Water Heater Company; JEFFREY 

DAVID JORDAN; and JASON SPARKS HANLEYBROWN (“Defendants”), stipulate to and 

request that the Court issue an order as follows: The current stay of litigation is lifted for the 

limited purpose of allowing Defendants to communicate with and attempt to enter into settlement 

agreements with individual members of the putative class; the stay on all other litigation 

activities, including discovery and pretrial motions (except for settlement discussions and motions 

that address settlement only), is extended to September 21, 2016; the statutes of limitations 

relating to any potential claim under Labor Code section 558.1 and the Fair Labor Standards Act 

for Plaintiffs and the putative class and collective action members is tolled until to November 7, 

2016; and Plaintiffs’ deadline to file a motion for class certification is continued to November 7, 

2016.
