Case No. 3:15-cv-02904-WHA – 1 – 

STIPULATED REQUEST FOR ORDER TO RESET CERTAIN DEADLINES; 

AND [PROPOSED] ORDER 

REED SMITH LLP 

A limited liability partnership formed in the State of Delaware 

STIPULATION 

Plaintiff Latasha McLaughlin and Defendant Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., by and through their 

respective counsel, stipulate as follows: 

WHEREAS, under the Court’s Notice [Dkt. 17], the parties were precluded from discussing a 

class settlement until the Court ruled on class certification; 

WHEREAS, on June 22, 2016, the Court issued an order certifying two classes under TILA 

[Dkt. 123] and set deadlines of July 12, 2016 for a joint notice plan to be submitted to the court, and 

to plan to distribute class notice by July 28, 2016; 

WHEREAS, the litigation to date has largely joined the merits and class certification issues, 

and framed the parties’ positions. Therefore following the Court’s ruling on class certification, 

which opened the door to engage in settlement discussions, the parties promptly began negotiations 

and held a telephone settlement conference with Magistrate Judge Ryu on June 30, 2016; 

WHEREAS, the parties will attend an in-person mediation with Magistrate Judge Ryu on 

August 5, 2016 at 10:00 am; 

WHEREAS, the Court’s Scheduling Order [Dkt. 37], issued in October 2015, originally set a 

class certification hearing for February 2016 and discovery deadlines in August 2016. The Order 

thus contemplated approximately 6 months from the issuance of an order on class certification until 

the discovery cutoff, for the parties to discuss a class resolution. Because class certification was not 

ruled on until June 22, 2016, however, the time available for the parties to meaningfully discuss 

resolution is now substantially shorter. 

WHEREAS, the parties are presently engaging in good faith settlement discussions and 

mutually seek to focus their respective resources on timely reaching a class resolution; 

THEREFORE, Plaintiff and Wells Fargo hereby agree as follows: 

1. Class Notice: 

a. To extend the deadline to submit a joint proposal for class notification from 

Tuesday, July 12, 2016 to Tuesday, August 23, 2016;

2. Wells Fargo’s Motion for Summary Judgment: 

a. Wells Fargo’s Motion for Summary Judgment [Dkt. 65] shall be set for 

hearing on November 3, 2016; 

b. Plaintiff’s Opposition shall be filed by September 29, 2016; 

c. Wells Fargo’s Reply shall be filed by October 13, 2016. 

3. Other Pretrial Deadlines: 

a. The non-expert discovery cut-off shall be continued from Wednesday, August 

31, 2016 to Wednesday, September 28, 2016; 

b. The expert deadlines set in paragraph 5 of the Court’s Scheduling Order [Dkt. 

37] shall be continued by 28 days, such that the last date for designation of 

expert testimony and disclosure of expert reports on issues where a party has 

the burden of proof shall be continued from August 31, 2016 to September 28, 

2016. Opposition and reply report deadlines, expert discovery cutoff, and 

other deadlines in Paragraphs 5 and 6 (damages studies) of the Scheduling 

Order are triggered off the September 28, 2016 opening report date as 

indicated in the Court’s Scheduling Order; 

c. The remaining dates in the Court’s Scheduling Order, including the 

September 29 deadline to file dispositive motions; November 3, 2016 deadline 

to hear dispositive motions, November 30, 2016 pretrial conference, and 

December 5, 2016 trial date, remain as set by the Court. 

IT IS SO STIPULATED.
