RECITALS

WHEREAS, on March 25, 2015, Plaintiff JD Brothers LLC (“JD Brothers”) filed its 

complaint in this action and Defendants were served and filed motions to dismiss, which are fully 

briefed and set for hearing on July 17, 2015;

WHEREAS, there is also a Case Management Conference set for July 17, 2015;

WHEREAS, the law firm of Cotchett, Pitre & McCarthy LLP was retained after JD 

Brothers filed its opposition to the motions to dismiss and, on June 15, 2015, the firm filed an 

Association of Counsel and Notices of Appearance for Joseph W. Cotchett and Nancy L. 

Fineman; and 

WHEREAS, at a Rule 26(f) conference on June 19, 2015 and in subsequent 

communications between the parties, the parties agreed that it would be more efficient for JD 

Brothers to file an amended complaint than to await the Court’s decision on the pending motions 

to dismiss, and that the Case Management Conference set for July 17, 2015 should be taken off 

calendar;

NOW, THEREFORE IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED AND AGREED, by and among 

all parties, through their undersigned counsel of record, and subject to the approval of this Court 

that: 

1. The hearing on Defendants’ motions to dismiss, which is currently set for July 17, 

2015, be taken off calendar and not decided by this Court; 

2. Plaintiff’s Amended Complaint may be filed no later than July 27, 2015;

3. Defendants’ Responses to the Amended Complaint may be filed no later than August 

31, 2015;
