JOINT STATUS REPORT

C-05-0269 MMC -2

seeking to appeal the Ninth Circuit’s decision in Hulteen et al. v. AT&T Corp. et al.. --- F.3d ----, 2007

WL 2332071 (9th Cir. 2007) which affirmed the Northern District of California’s determination that it is

a violation of the Pregnancy Discrimination Act for AT&T to calculate service credit by excluding time

spent on pregnancy leave when determining eligibility for retirement benefits. On October 22, 2007,

AT&T Corporation filed a Petition for Certiorari with the Supreme Court. See, AT&T Corp. et al. v.

Hulteen et al., 2007 WL 3129920 (2007). Since the issue in Hulteen is the same legal issue before the

court in this case, the parties request that the Court continue to stay the proceedings in this case until the

Supreme Court decides to grant or deny certiorari in the Hulteen case. 

 With this court’s permission, the parties will keep the court apprized of the status of the

Supreme Court proceedings by filing a Joint Status Report every ninety (90) days until such time as the

Supreme Court has ruled on the Petition for Certiorari.
