RON BRUCKERT, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

CITY OF CONCORD, 

Defendant. 

Case No. 06-06920 BZ 

STIPULATION AND PROPOSED ORDER 

FOR RESCHEDULING DISCOVERY 

DEADLINES AND DEADLINE FOR 

HEARING DISPOSITIVE MOTIONS 

Complaint Filed: November 6, 2006 

 Trial Date: April 7, 2008 

THE PARTIES HEREBY STIPULATE: 

On October 29, 2007, the Parties conducted the case management conference before this 

Court. 

On November 1, 2007, the Court adopted the Parties’ Joint Case Management Conference 

Statement and issued the Order Scheduling Jury Trial and Pretrial Matters (“Order”). The Order 

established deadlines for discovery and hearing of dispositive motions, along with setting the trial 

date and pretrial conference date. The Order also required that Plaintiffs provide a breakdown of 

individual claims data to Defendant. 

On November 15, 2007, Plaintiffs provided a set of individual claims data to Defendant. 

Since then, the Parties have been working together to resolve the remaining individual claims

data. 

On November 6, 2007, Plaintiffs served to Defendant a set of Interrogatories and a 

Request for Production of Documents. On December 4, 2007, the Defendant responded to 

Plaintiffs’ Interrogatories. On December 28, 2007, the Defendant responded to Plaintiffs’ 

Request for Production of Documents. 

Throughout this time, the Parties have been working together to identify persons most 

knowledgeable on the individual claims as possible deponents. The Parties have scheduled 

several depositions throughout February and early March, in addition to the depositions the 

Defendant has already taken in September 2007. 

After having reviewed and analyzed the individual claims data and based upon the 

depositions already taken, the Parties believe that mediation in early April 2008, following the 

upcoming scheduled depositions, may be productive in resolving the Parties’ dispute, thereby 

avoiding trial. However, if mediation is not successful, the Parties anticipate that additional 

discovery may be necessary following mediation. 

Notwithstanding attempts to mediate the dispute, the Parties also believe that additional 

depositions may be necessary following the upcoming scheduled depositions due to the number 

of consentors in the collective action, the number of individual claims, and the varying facts 

involved. 

Thus, to accommodate attempts to mediate the dispute and to conduct additional 

depositions, the Parties request a formal order extending the deadline for completion of discovery 

and hearing of dispositive motions. The Parties seek to extend the deadline for close of nonexpert discovery from March 14, 2008 to April 11, 2008. The Parties seek to extend the deadline 

for last day for expert disclosure from March 21, 2008 to April 18, 2008. The Parties seek to 

extend the deadline for last day for expert discovery from March 28, 2008 to April 25, 2008. 

Finally, the Parties seek to extend the last day to hear dispositive motions from April 16, 2008 to 

May 30, 2008. The extended deadlines do not affect the pretrial conference date or the trial date. 

The following is the Parties’ proposed schedule: 

(1) Trial Date: July 7, 2008 (no change)
