JOINT STIPULATION

2 WHEREAS Plaintiffs Jackie Blennis and David Brickner ("Plaintiffs") commenced this

3 action by filing a Complaint on January 17,2007, and serving the Complaint on Defendant Hewlett4 Packard Company ("Defendant") on May 1,2007;

5 WHEREAS on November 2,2007, the Court held a hearng on Defendant's Motion to

6 Dismiss and continued the scheduled case management conference to January 18,2008 at 10:30 a.m.;

7 WHEREAS on January 14, 2008, the Court granted the parties' joint request to continue the

8 scheduled case management conference from January 18,2008 until March 14,2008;

9 WHEREAS good cause exists for approving this Joint Stipulation, because, as explained in

10 the accompanying declarations of Alfredo Torrjos and Michael H. Dore, continuing these deadlines

11 would further judicial economy by presumably allowing the parties to address the topics specified in

12 the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and Local Rules subsequent to the Court's ruling on

13 Defendant's Motion to Dismiss, thus enabling the parties to have a better sense of the scope of the

14 case.

1 5 ACCORDINGLY, pursuant to Local Rule 6- 1 (b), the parties, by and through their counsel of

16 record, hereby stipulate to, and request the Court's approval of the following:

17

18

19

1. The Case Management Conference shall be moved from March 14, 2008. to

2.

May 9, 2008, at 9:00 a.m. (or such other date when the Court is available).

All other deadlines remain as scheduled by the Court and/or pursuant to the

20 Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and/or the Court's Local Rules

21 IT IS SO STIPULATED.

DECLARTION OF MICHAEL H. DORE

I, Michael H. Dore, declare as follows:

1. I am an attorney admitted to practice law before all cours of the State of California

4 and I intend to submit an application to become a member of the bar of this Court. I am an associate

5 in the law firm of Gibson, Dun & Crutcher LLP, and I am one of the attorneys responsible for the

6 representation of Defendant Hewlett-Packard Company ("HP") in the action entitled Jackie Blennis

7 and David Brickner, et al. v. Hewlett-Packard Company, et al. (N.D. CaL. Case No. C 07-00333-

8 RMW). Pursuant to Local Rule 6-2(a), I submit this declaration in support of the paries' Joint

9 Stipulation and (Proposed) Order Continuing Case Management Conference (the "Joint Stipulation").

10 Unless otherwise stated, the following facts are within my personal knowledge and, if called and

11 sworn as a witness, I could and would testify competently thereto.

12 2. HP was served with Plaintiffs Complaint in the above-referenced action on May 1,

13 2007. On November 2,2007, the Cour held a hearing on Defendant's Motion to Dismiss and

14 continued the scheduled case management conference to January 18, 2008 at 10:30 a.m.

15 3. On Januar 14,2008, the Cour granted the parties' joint request to continue the

16 scheduled case management conference from January 18, 2008 to March 14,2008.

17 4. The Reasons for the Requested Enlargement or Shortening of Time (Local Rule 6-

18 2(a)(1)). I believe that judicial effciency would best be served by holding the case management

19 conference subsequent to the Cour's ruling on Defendant's motion to dismiss, which would allow

20 the paries to have a better sense ofthe scope of the case when attempting to address the various

21 topics and deadlines raised in the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and this Cour's Local Rules.

22 5. Prior Time Modifications in this Case (Local Rule 6-2(a)(2)). Prior to the November

23 2, 2007 hearing on Defendant's Motion to Dismiss, the paries had requested that the initial case

24 management conference be continued until the date previously set for the hearing on Defendant's

25 Motion to Dismiss (i.e., August 17,2007). The parties also requested that the scheduled January 18,

26 2008 date for the case management conference be continued to March 14,2008. Those requests were

27 granted.

2 Rule 6-2(a)(3)). The requested extensions in the JointStipulation would move the scheduled Case

3 Management Conference from March 14,2008 to May 9, 2008.

DECLARTION OF ALFREDO TORRJOS

I, Alfredo Torrjos, declare as follows:

1. I am an attorney admitted to practice law before all courts of the State of California. I

4 am an associate in the law firm ofKabateck Brown Kellner LLP, and I am one ofthe attorneys

5 responsible for the representation of Plaintiffs Jackie Blennis and David Brickner ("Plaintiffs") in the

6 action entitled Jackie Blennis and David Brickner, et al. v. Hewlett-Packard Company, et al. (N.D.

8 support of the parties' Joint Stipulation and (Proposed) Order Continuing Case Management

10 personal knowledge and, if called and sworn as a witness, I could and would testify competently

11 thereto.

12 2. Plaintiffs served their Complaint on HP on May 1, 2007. On November 2,2007, the

13 Cour held a hearing on Defendant's Motion to Dismiss and continued the scheduled case

15 3. On Januar l4, 2008, the Cour granted the paries' joint request to continue the scheduled

16 case management conference from January 18, 2008 to March 14,2008.

17 4. The Reasons for the Requested Enlargement or Shortening of Time (Local Rule 6-

18 2(a)(I)). I believe that judicial efficiency would best be served by holding the case management

19 conference subsequent to the Cour's ruling on Defendant's motion to dismiss, which would allow

20 the paries to have a better sense of the scope of the case when attempting to address the varous

21 topics and deadlines raised in the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and this Cour's Local Rules.
