ORDER VACATING TRIAL

DATE OF OCTOBER 17, 2005.

In this individual and class action for damages and injunctive relief, plaintiffs Michael

Chouinard, et al. (“Plaintiffs”) have moved for leave to amend the complaint to reinstate

claims previously dismissed by the court. The motion for leave to amend is based on recent

Ninth Circuit authority that Plaintiffs contend overrules the authority relied upon by the court

in dismissing those claims previously dismissed by this court. In view of the time that will be

required to address Plaintiffs’ motion for leave to amend, and given the possibility that

additional time may be required for discovery and/or dispositive motions, the court concludes

the trial date currently set for October 17, 2005 must be vacated.

THEREFORE, it is hereby ordered that the trial date currently set for October 17,

2005 is hereby VACATED. A further scheduling conference will be set when the court

issues its order on Plaintiffs’ motion for leave to amend.
