STIPULATION RE CONTINUANCE OF 

CASE MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE

ACTION NO: C 04-0793 TEH

2

The parties to the captioned matter, by and through their respective counsel, hereby

stipulate to and request a continuance of the Case Management Conference currently

scheduled for September 12, 2005. 

Good cause exists for the continuance in that the parties are continuing to work toward

a resolution of the case and remain optimistic that a settlement will occur within the next 60

days. The parties’ efforts have included, and will continue to continue to include, working on

issues such as the amount of retroactive benefits, the amount of attorney’s fees, gathering

medical records, determining the amount of social security and any other offsets, and

identifying any other terms of a settlement. Inasmuch as the matter is likely to settle, but will

not settle before the currently scheduled conference, the parties believe a continuance of the

conference would be the best use of resources for the Court and the parties.

The parties are informed from the clerk that October 24, 2005, is an available date for

a further conference. That date would be acceptable to both parties.

IT IS SO STIPULATED.
