(HRL), and Io Group, Inc. v. Webnovas Technologies, Inc. and Gonetmarket, Inc, C-06-5334

 The extension of time is necessary to ensure that defendants have an opportunity to be 

heard on the issue relatedness and to ensure the efficient use of the Court’s time. 

WHEREAS Plaintiff Io Group, Inc. filed a Notice of Related Cases in this matter on 

September 11, 2006, seeking to relate cases Io Group, Inc. v. Veoh, Networks, Inc., C-06-3926 

(HRL), Io Group, Inc. v. Data Conversions, Inc, C-06-065162 (HRL), and Io Group, Inc. v. 

Webnovas Technologies, Inc. and Gonetmarket, Inc, C-06-5334 (JSW). 

WHEREAS under stipulation an answer or other response is not due from Webnovas 

Technologies, Inc and Gonetmarket, Inc until October 10, 2006 and from Data Conversions, Inc. 

until October 19, 2006. 

WHEREAS defendants Webnovas Technologies, Inc., Gonetmarket, Inc., and Data 

Conversions, Inc. should have an opportunity to respond to the Notice of Related Cases before this 

Court issues its order; and 

WHEREAS it would be an inefficient use of the time of the parties and the Court to 

prepare and hold the Case Management Conference until after the Court has ruled as to whether or 

not Io Group, Inc. v. Veoh, Networks, Inc., C-06-3926 (HRL), Io Group, Inc. v. Data Conversions, 

Inc, C-06-065162 (HRL), and Io Group, Inc. v. Webnovas Technologies, Inc. and Gonetmarket, 

Inc, C-06-5334 (JSW) are related. 

The parties do therefore stipulate and agree as follows: 

1. The Court will rule whether or not Io Group, Inc. v. Veoh, Networks, Inc., C-06-

3926 (HRL), Io Group, Inc. v. Data Conversions, Inc, C-06-065162 (HRL), and Io Group, Inc. v. 

Webnovas Technologies, Inc. and Gonetmarket, Inc, C-06-5334 (JSW) are related after October 

19, 2006 so that all defendants have sufficient time to file an opposition or notice of nonopposition.

2. The Case Management Conference currently calendared for October 10, 2006 will

065162 (HRL), and Io Group, Inc. v. Webnovas Technologies, Inc. and Gonetmarket, Inc, C-06-

5334 (JSW) are related. 

3. The related deadlines (Deadline for ADR Selection, Deadline to Meet and Confer 

regarding Initial Disclosures and Deadline for filing Case Management Conference Statement) 

will be re-calendared once a date has been selected for the Case Management Conference.
