GENARO DELGADILLO MORALES (collectively, “Defendants”) submit the following 

stipulation. 

Plaintiff and Defendants agree and stipulate to a continuance of the Initial Case 

Management Conference set for June 8, 2010 and an enlargement of time for Rule 26 and Case 

Management obligations. This is done as the parties have scheduled a mediation on May 27, 

2010 and the continuance will allow the parties to first attempt to resolve their dispute. As the 

mediation falls after the deadlines for the exchanges and submissions, this accommodation is 

requested by stipulation. 

The enlargement of time will alter events and/or deadlines fixed by this Court in its 

March 10, 2010 Order setting the initial case management conference and ADR deadlines and 

May 3, 2010 continuing the Initial CMC to June 8, 2010. The parties, therefore, respectfully 

request an Order Changing and Extending Time for the reasons stated in the declaration of 

Tomas Margain filed concurrently herewith. This continuance and extension is sought as the 

parties are going to mediation on May 27, 2010 and the parties want to attempt to resolve the 

matter prior to filing a Joint Case Management Statement and exchanging Rule 26 disclosures. 

It is Stipulated that the initial Case Management Conference be continued 21 days and 

the Rule 26 deadlines be also continued 21 days.

DECLARATION OF TOMAS E. MARGAIN

I, Tomas E. Margain, declare: 

1. I am an attorney admitted to practice before the United States District Court, and 

Plaintiff’s attorney of record in this action. I have personal knowledge of the facts set forth 

herein and could testify competently thereto. 

Reasons for Requested Enlargement Pursuant to Local Rule 6-2(a)(1)

2. My client, Defendants and Defendants’ counsel have scheduled an early 

mediation session with Koorosh Afshari for May 27, 2010. This is not Court sponsored 

mediation but private mediation. 

3. From my perspective, my client agreed with early mediation as I feel that I have 

undertaken sufficient investigation to perform my due diligence. I have also used Mr. Afshari in 

the past and in fact my partner and I have successfully mediated to matters with Defendants’ 

counsel’s firm using Mr. Afshari on two occasions last year. This early mediation will help the 

parties’ asses their respective cases and attempt to resolve this matter before a substantial 

expense of attorneys’ fees. 

4. By agreeing to modify the deadlines, this will significantly cut down on attorneys’ 

fees. Defendants have provided me with enough records to asses the claim. However, 

complying with the initial disclosures and drafting a joint management statement will drive up 

fees which would not be reasonable if the matter settles on May 27, 2010. 

5. Given the above, the proposed deadlines allow the parties to attempt to resolve 

this matter and either inform the Court of the settlement or be able to comply with the deadlines 

prior to the Initial CMC in a timely manner. 

Previous Time Modifications Pursuant to Local Rule 6-2(a)(2)

6. There have been no previous time modifications in the case by stipulation 

however, the Court continued the Initial CMC from June 1, 2010 to the current June 8, 2010 

date.

Effect of Requested Time Modification

7. The requested time modification will extend the events and/or deadlines set in this 

Court’s March 10, 2010 order re initial case management and ADR deadlines. This modification 

will accommodate the parties desire to try to settle this matter on May 27, 2010. 

8. I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the United States of America 

that the foregoing is true and correct.
