Plaintiff/Counterdefendant VinterActive, LLC and Defendant/Counterclaimant 

OptiRev, LLC stipulate to and respectfully ask the Court to reschedule the Initial Case 

Management Conference that is currently scheduled for October 2, 2015, at 2:30 p.m., to 

November 6, 2015, at 2:30 p.m., and to continue other deadlines accordingly, per the 

Order Setting Initial Case Management Conference and ADR Deadlines (ECF 3), which 

states: “If the Initial Case Management Conference is continued, the other deadlines are 

continued accordingly.”

There is good cause to reschedule the Case Management Conference, due to a 

scheduling conflict identified by OptiRev’s counsel, as set forth in accompanying 

declaration of W. Christian Krankemann in support of this stipulated request. Mr. 

Krankemann has trial-related conferences scheduled on October 2, for an insurance bad 

faith trial starting on October 6 in Marin County Superior Court. Trial is expected to run 

three to four weeks. At the same time, he is in the process of relocating his law firm to a 

separate building by the end of September 2015. He anticipates that trial- and move-related 

issues will consume nearly all of his time from now until the latter part of October. 

Despite these scheduling issues, the parties are working diligently and cooperatively 

to advance this case. OptiRev filed its Answer and Counterclaim on August 7, 2015 (ECF 

17), and VinterActive filed its Answer to Counterclaim on August 27, 2015 (ECF 18). The 

parties have communicated by phone and email and have agreed to continue meet and 

confer efforts throughout October. 

NOW THEREFORE, the parties stipulate and agree, subject to the Court’s approval, 

that: 

(i) the Case Management Conference will be moved from September 25, 2015, at 

2:30 p.m., to November 6, 2015, at 2:30 p.m. 

(ii) the Case Management Statement will be due on October 30, 2015, and all other 

deadlines set forth in the Order Setting Initial Case Management Conference and ADR 

Deadlines (ECF 3) will be continued accordingly.

I, W. Christian Krankemann, declare as follows: 

1. I am an attorney admitted to practice in California and before this Court. I am 

a partner in the law firm Krankemann | Petersen LLP, counsel of record for OptiRev, LLC 

in this matter. I make this declaration based on my own personal knowledge. 

2. Pursuant to Civil L.R. 6-2, I submit this declaration in support of the parties’ 

concurrently filed Joint Stipulation and [Proposed] Order Rescheduling the Initial Case 

Management Conference. 

3. On June 23, 2015, the Court scheduled the Initial Case Management 

Conference in this matter for September 25, 2015, at 2:30 p.m. (ECF 3). On August 6, 

2015, the Court postponed the Initial Case Management Conference one week to October 2, 

2015. 

4. Defendant/Counterclaimant OptiRev, LLC filed its Answer/Counterclaim on 

August 7, 2015 (ECF 17), and Plaintiff/Counterdefendant VinterActive, LLC filed its 

Answer to Counterclaim on August 27, 2015 (ECF 18). 

5. I have a scheduling conflict on October 2, 2015 and therefore am not able to 

attend the Case Management Conference as currently scheduled. I am lead trial counsel in 

De La Renta v. Geico, an insurance bad faith case set in Marin County Superior Court, Civ1202608 (filed June 6, 2012). The trial is set to start on October 6, and I have trial-related 

conferences scheduled for October 2, 2015 that I am unable to reschedule. Trial is expected 

to run for three to four weeks, and almost certainly will not be postponed. 

6. I am also in the process of moving my law firm out of its current address by 

the end of this month, and into a separate building. I expect that trial and move-related 

issues will consume almost all of my time from now until the latter part of October. 

7. In light of the abovementioned conflict, I requested that the parties agree to a 

new date for the Case Management Conference. Counsel for Plaintiff/Counterdefendant 

VinterActive, LLC, does not oppose the request. 

8. Despite these scheduling issues, the parties are working diligently and 

cooperatively to advance this case via recent filings. The parties have also communicated

9. Pursuant to Civil L.R. 6-2(a)(2), I have set forth below a list of previous time 

modifications in this action: 

a. On July 28, 2015, pursuant to the parties’ joint stipulation, the 

Court ordered that OptiRev, LLC had an additional 14 days to file its 

Answer/Counterclaim. 

10. The parties do not foresee this time modification having any effect on the 

schedule for this matter. 

I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the United States of America that 

the foregoing is true and correct. Executed this 17th day of September, 2015, at Santa Rosa, 

California.
