CONTINUING CASE MANAGEMENT 

CONFERENCE 

 ) 

Pursuant to Civil Local Rule 16-2(e), the parties to the above-entitled action stipulate as 

follows: 

1. The parties appeared for an initial Case Management Conference on June 23, 2005. 

At that time, plaintiffs’ counsel advised that he believed that the related litigation, Elisa Stephens, 

et al., v. Olympic Club, pending in San Francisco Superior Court, could proceed to trial on or 

about January 2006. The parties agreed that, because of the factual overlap between the cases,

discovery in this action should be stayed pending resolution of the Olympic Club action. The 

Court agreed and continued the Case Management Conference to February 23, 2006. 

2. In the course of litigating Olympic Club action, the plaintiffs have discovered that 

the structural damage is not as extensive as originally anticipated and their claim against their 

insurance carriers, which is the basis for this action, will be substantially lower as a result. 

Nevertheless, plaintiffs are still in the process of obtaining hydrological and soils reports to rule 

out other causes of the damage. As a result, plaintiffs do not anticipate a trial in the Olympic Club

action until September 2006. 

3. It would be in the best interest all of the parties to wait for a resolution of the 

Olympic Club action before undertaking discovery in this action. 

4. The Case Management Conference originally scheduled for February 23, 2006 at 

2:30 p.m. will be continued until October 5, 2006 at 2:30 p.m.
