ANNA JONES BELTING, LLC, a California

Defendant.

Case No. C15-3557 HSG

PLAINTIFFS’ REQUEST TO CONTINUE 

CASE MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE; 

ORDER THEREON

Date: November 3, 2015

Time: 2:00 p.m.

Location: 450 Golden Gate Avenue,

San Francisco, CA

Courtroom: 15, 18th Floor

Judge: Haywood S. Gilliam

Plaintiffs herein respectfully request that the Case Management Conference, currently on 

calendar for November 3, 2015, be continued for approximately 60 – 90 days. Good cause exists for the 

granting of the continuance, as follows:

1. As the Court’s records will reflect, this action was filed on August 3, 2015.

2. On or about August 5, 2015, Plaintiffs provided a process server with the Summons, 

Complaint and related documents with instructions to serve the documents upon Defendant. As of 

today’s date, the process server has made nine (9) attempts to serve Defendant with the above referenced 

documents, without success. 

3. Plaintiffs were recently contacted by an attorney advising that he represents Defendant. 

After several messages to one another, Plaintiffs’ counsel and Defendant’s counsel discussed this matter 

today, including Plaintiffs’ unsuccessful attempts to serve Defendant with the Summons, Complaint and

PLAINTIFFS’ REQUEST TO CONTINUE CASE MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE; [PROPOSED] ORDER

related documents. As Plaintiffs have been unable to serve Defendant’s agent for service of process, 

Plaintiffs inquired as to whether Defendant’s counsel would accept service of the Summons, Complaint, 

and related documents. Defendant’s counsel advised that, upon approval from Defendant, he would 

accept service. Upon receipt of the Complaint and related documents, the parties agreed to discuss this 

matter further in an effort to reach an informal resolution. If Defendant’s counsel is unable to accept 

service of the Summons, Complaint, and related documents, Plaintiffs will resume attempts to 

personally serve Defendant and continue efforts to resolve this matter informally.

4. Accordingly, Plaintiffs respectfully request that the Case Management Conference, 

currently scheduled for November 3, 2015, be continued for approximately 60 - 90 days to allow 

sufficient time for completion of service of process on Defendant and for the parties to attempt to reach 

an informal resolution of this matter.

5. There are no issues that need to be addressed by the parties at the currently scheduled 

Case Management Conference. In the interest of conserving costs as well as the Court’s time and 

resources, Plaintiffs respectfully request that the Court continue the currently scheduled Case 

Management Conference.

I declare under penalty of perjury that I am the attorney for the Plaintiffs in the above entitled 

action, and that the foregoing is true of my own knowledge.

Executed this 27th day of October 2015, at San Francisco, California.
