STIPULATION RE SCHEDULING OF CACKETTE DEPOSITINOoN. CIV F-04-6663 SAWI LJO

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Scheduling Order in this matter, the non-expert discovery

cut-off is September 22, 2006. (See Document 297: Order on Defendant’s and Defendant

Intervenors’ Motion to Modify the Scheduling Order, dated July 17, 2006.)

WHEREAS, plaintiffs seek to take the deposition of Thomas Cackette, Deputy Executive

Officer of the California Air Resources Board, and had noticed his deposition for September 8,

2006.

WHEREAS, Mr. Cackette has represented to the parties that due to his previous

scheduling commitments and the schedule of counsel, his deposition cannot reasonably be taken

before October 13, 2006. That date is agreeable to all parties, but the date is after the September

22, 2006, non-expert discovery cut-off.

WHEREAS, on September 7, 2006, counsel for plaintiffs and counsel for defendant

Witherspoon, telephoned the Court informally and proposed that Mr. Cackette’s deposition be

taken on October 13, 2006, without prejudice to plaintiffs’ right to seek judicial relief after the

deposition, in the same manner as plaintiffs would be entitled to had the deposition proceeded as

noticed on September 8. The Court indicated that the proposal would be acceptable and directed

the parties to submit a stipulation and proposed order effectuating it.

THEREFORE, Plaintiffs Central Valley Chrysler-Jeep, Inc. et al. and Defendant

Catherine E. Witherspoon hereby stipulate that:

1. Plaintiffs shall take Mr. Cackette’s deposition on October 13, 2006, in accordance with their

deposition notice.

2. Plaintiffs shall have the time-period they would have had to bring any motions based on Mr.

Cackette’s deposition, had the deposition taken place on September 8, 2006.
