Stipulation And [Proposed] Order To Stay Motion Action To May 31, 2007 

Case No. C07-00140 CW 

The parties, Plaintiffs Dreyer's Grand Ice Cream, Inc. and Edy’s Grand Ice Cream, and 

Defendant Ice Cream Distributors of Evansville, LLC, through counsel, hereby stipulate and agree that 

all actions, deadlines and other proceedings in this action shall be and hereby are stayed through and 

including May 31, 2007, while the parties voluntarily submit to mediation. 

The parties further agree that the pending Motion to Compel Alternative Dispute Resolution, 

scheduled for March 16, 2007, shall be taken off calendar. 

The parties further agree that if the parties, or either or them, seek to lift the stay prior to 

May 31, 2007, because the mediation was unsuccessful or the settlement discussions otherwise reach 

an impasse, the parties, or any of them, may file an unopposed motion to have the stay lifted. In the 

event that such an unopposed motion is filed by one party, the other parties shall not oppose the 

motion and agree that an order lifting the stay may be entered by the Court without a hearing.
