WHEREAS, On September 30, 2014, Plaintiffs JOSEPH TERRAS, and 

BOBBY TYLER (collectively “Plaintiffs”), as individual California residents, on 

behalf of themselves and all others similarly situated, filed a Complaint asserting a 

hybrid putative class and collective action against Defendant TRINITY RIVER 

LUMBER COMPANY (“Defendant”), a California corporation. 

WHEREAS, On December 15, 2014, Defendant filed its Motion to Dismiss, 

For A More Definite Statement and to Strike the Complaint (“Motion”), that is 

presently set for hearing on February 19, 2015. 

WHEREAS, although Plaintiffs and Defendants (“Parties”) have been 

working together in a good faith attempt to resolve the issues raised by 

Defendant’s Motion and Plaintiffs have prepared a draft of their First Amended 

Complaint, Defendant contends that the First Amended Complaint still has many 

of the fatal deficiencies raised in its Motion, including the failure to allege facts 

required for Plaintiffs’ claims and allegations. The Parties are still working 

towards resolving those disputed issues prior to the filing of the First Amended 

Complaint.

WHEREAS, the Parties agree that the First Amended Complaint will be 

filed before the February 19, 2015 hearing date, and that Defendant shall have the 

right to file a response to the First Amended Complaint to raise any deficiencies it 

claims may still exist as to the First Amended Complaint and any subsequent 

amended pleading. 

THEREFORE, pursuant to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure Rule 15 and 

Civil Local Rules 220, 143 and 137, Plaintiffs and Defendant, through their 

undersigned counsel, hereby stipulate and agree to the following:

1. Plaintiffs shall file their First Amended Complaint prior to February 

19, 2015. A draft of the First Amended Complaint to be filed is attached hereto as

Exhibit A, and is subject to further modification based upon the discussions of the 

Parties to resolve their disputes regarding the First Amended Complaint. ;

2. The Parties agree that Plaintiffs have the right, subject to approval of 

the Court, to file a Second Amended Complaint, if necessary; and

3. Defendant agrees to withdraw its Motion to Dismiss, for a More 

Definite Statement and to Strike Plaintiffs’ Complaint that is presently set for 

hearing on February 19, 2015, provided that Plaintiffs file their First Amended 

Complaint prior to that hearing date. Defendant retains the right to file a response, 

including another appropriate motion, to the First Amended Complaint, or to the 

Second Amended Complaint if one is filed. Defendant shall have 14 days after 

service of the First Amended Complaint (or service of a Second amended 

Complaint if one is filed) to file its response and/or another motion thereto.
