STIPULATION AND ORDER RE

SECOND INFORMAL DISCOVERY

CONFERENCE AND CONTINUED

SCHEDULING CONFERENCE

In May 2006, the parties to the above action participated in

an informal discovery conference with the Court in chambers. 

During this informal conference, the parties addressed several

discovery issues, including but not limited to those issues

relating to the production of electronically stored information

(“ESI”). Pursuant to the above conference, the Court vacated

this case’s then-existing litigation schedule, and provided the

parties with additional time by which to try to resolve these

issues. 

Since the above conference, the parties have extensively

engaged in further written discovery, and also participated in

depositions. Pursuant to the above, as well as the parties’ June

27, 2007 e-mail exchange with the Court, the parties now request

a second informal discovery conference in chambers. The parties

seek the Court’s guidance regarding those discovery issues that

presently remain in the case prior to the potential need to

address these issues in a formal motion. The parties recommend

that they also serve, but not file, informal letter briefs on the

Court and opposing counsel prior to the conference pursuant to

the briefing schedule set forth below. 

In light of the above, the parties stipulate to the briefing

schedule and discovery/scheduling conferences as set forth below. 

These dates consider the parties’ respective caseload demands of

this fall, as well as their current exchanges regarding potential

case resolution issues.
