Stipulation to Continue Dates 

Case No. 2:12-cv-01114-JAM-EFB 

 WHEREAS, the Court, by stipulation of the parties, continued the deadline for Plaintiffs 

to file their class certification motion to May 30, 2014 following the Court’s Order Denying 

Defendant’s Motion to Compel Arbitration and Defendant’s Voluntary Dismissal of an Appeal 

of the Court’s Order Denying Motion to Compel Arbitration; 

 WHEREAS, on February 21, 2014, Defendant served both supplemental responses to 

prior sets of discovery and responses to recently propounded discovery requests by Plaintiff; 

 WHEREAS, Plaintiff contends that Defendant’s responses were insufficient and the 

Parties have been meeting and conferring regarding Defendant’s responses and are trying to 

resolve as many outstanding discovery disputes informally and without burdening the Court with 

unnecessary motion practice; 

 WHEREAS, the Parties have been conducting depositions and believe they will need 

additional time in order to complete all depositions prior to the filing of the motion for class 

certification; 

 WHEREAS, Plaintiffs’ Motion to Compel Responses to Discovery is currently set for 

hearing on March 26, 2014 and in order to facilitate the Parties’ meet and confer efforts, will 

seek to briefly continue the hearing date; 

 WHEREAS, based on the foregoing, the parties respectfully request the Court to briefly 

continue the class certification briefing schedule in order for the Parties to resolve as many 

outstanding discovery disputes informally and thereafter file discovery related motions, as 

needed;
