More precisely, trial in this matter is currently set for

February 28, 2007, however, Defendants’ counsel is scheduled to

proceed on another matter set to commence trial in the Nevada

County Superior Court on February 27, 2007. In addition,

Defendants’ retained expert, John Nunan, has pre-paid vacation

plans which conflict with the current trial date of February 28,

2007.

Defendants contend that good cause exists for the Court to

continue this matter because of the foregoing double calendar

conflict. Indeed, should trial proceed as currently scheduled,

Defendants will be forced to proceed without both their chosen

counsel as well as their key retained expert.

Defendants’ Motion to Continue is both unopposed and

properly submitted. Upon review of the facts giving rise to

Defendants’ Motion, the Court finds good cause has been

established. Good cause having been found, Defendants’ Motion to

Continue is, hereby, GRANTED. Trial shall be reset to commence

on September 5, 2007, at 9:00 a.m. in Courtroom 3. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: February 14, 2007
