1 Case No. CV10-02003 EDL

Stipulation to Continue CMC

389954.1 

Initial Disclosures on August 10, 2010; (2) Joint CMC Statement due August 17, 2010; and (3) 

Case Management Conference held on August 24, 2010; 

WHEREAS, the Parties have agreed to engage in good faith settlement negotiations to 

attempt early resolution of this action. 

IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED AS FOLLOWS: 

In light of the Parties’ settlement negotiations and the upcoming hearing date for 

Defendants’ Motion to Set Aside Default scheduled for September 21, 2010, the Parties believe it 

is in the interest of judicial economy and in the Parties’ best interests to conserve their resources 

and focus their efforts on settlement efforts as opposed to litigating this matter, and therefore 

requests that all upcoming case management deadlines (including the CMC scheduled for August 

24, 2010) be VACATED and the CMC continued until the hearing on Defendants’ Motion to Set 

Aside Default. Because of unavailability of Plaintiff’s counsel on the previously noticed hearing 

date of September 21, 2010, the Parties jointly request that both the CMC and Defendants’ Motion 

to Set Aside Default be continued and heard on September 28, 2010, at which point the Court can 

make further scheduling orders as necessary. 

SO STIPULATED.
