STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER TO CONTINUE THE MOTION TO DISMISS HEARING; 

CASE NO.: C 05-01339 CW 

The parties in the above captioned matter recently met and conferred to discuss the 

allegations in the Complaint. Pursuant to those discussions, Plaintiff Michael Edward Ross 

(“Plaintiff”) has agreed to withdraw certain claims. In addition, Plaintiff intends to add new 

claims. The deadline, however, for Defendant Refco F/X Associates, LLC (“Refco”) to file a 

responsive pleading to the existing Complaint is fast approaching –August 29, 2005. 

Therefore, in order to avoid motion practice on a complaint that is soon to be superceded, 

the parties hereby stipulate that Plaintiff may have through September 2, 2005 to file his amended 

complaint. Defendant may have through October 14, 2005, to serve its response to the amended 

complaint, and it is to schedule any motion to dismiss to be heard on November 18, 2005 at 

10:00 A.M. The parties agree that the Case Management Conference should also be continued to 

November 18, 2005.
