STIPULATION SHORTENING TIME TO HEAR MOTION FOR PROTECTIVE ORDER LIMITING THE NUMBER OF 

PLAINTIFF’S DISCLOSED EXPERTS AND TO EXTEND THE DEADLINE FOR EXPERT DISCOVERY; [PROPOSED] ORDER 

and State of California, Department of Transportation’s Motion For Protective Order Limiting the 

Number of Plaintiff Lucio Corral Rodriguez’ Disclosed Experts And To Extend The Deadline For 

Expert Discovery may be heard on shortened time pursuant to Local Rule 144(e). This 

stipulation is made because Defendants wish to limit the number of Plaintiff’s disclosed experts 

prior to taking their depositions and the motion would be rendered moot if it is noticed pursuant 

to Local Rule 230(b) because the close of expert discovery is July 15, 2010. 

IT IS HEREBY FURTHER STIPULATED that the nonmoving parties will have at least 

seven (7) calendar days to file any opposition to the Motion for Protective Order. 

IT IS HEREBY FURTHER STIPULATED that, in the interest of having the Motion for 

Protective Order heard at the Court’s earliest convenience, Defendants National Railroad 

Passenger Corporation, BNSF Railway Company and State of California, Department of 

Transportation waive their right to file a written reply in support of the Motion but reserve their 

right to orally reply at the motion hearing to be set by the Court.
