STIPULATION AND PROPOSED ORDER FOR RELIEF 

FROM SCHEDULING ORDER; CASE NO. 5:06-CV04529 

By signatures of their counsel to this Stipulation, the parties to this action stipulate that the 

deadlines set forth in this Court’s March 23, 2007 Scheduling Order may be continued as set forth 

in the schedule below. 

 The parties desire to continue the dates set forth in the Scheduling Order for the following 

reasons: 

 1. On March 20, 2007, the parties conducted an all day mediation session before the 

Hon. Ellen Sickles James at JAMS. Although the March 20, 2007 mediation did not resolve the 

dispute, the parties agreed to reconvene for a second mediation session on May 3, 2007. 

 2. On May 3, 2007, the parties conducted a second all day mediation session before 

Judge James, at which the parties made progress in attempting to resolve this dispute. Since the 

May 3, 2007 mediation session, the parties have continued to communicate, through Judge James, 

about settling this case. Counsel for all parties desire to devote their time, energies, and resources 

to trying to resolve this matter, rather than expend resources conducting tasks necessary to 

comply with the rapidly approaching deadlines (including discovery, expert witness, and 

dispositive motion deadlines) set forth in the Court’s March 23, 2007 Scheduling Order. 

 3. This Stipulation and Proposed Order is not interposed for purposes of delay but in 

the interests of justice and the resolution of the controversies herein. 

Case Schedule

 4. Counsel for all parties have conferred with respect to these matters, and all parties 

agree to continue the dates set forth in the Court’s prior Schedule, resulting in the following Case 

Schedule:
