TO THE HONORABLE LAWRENCE K. KARLTON AND HIS COURT 

CLERK: 

On July 5, 2007, this Court issued an Order granting Defendants The Prudential 

Insurance Company of America and Prudential Financial, Inc.’s (“Defendants”) 

motion to dismiss the Second Amended Complaint of Plaintiffs A.C. Steelman, Fran 

McDermott, Trustees of the Sacramento Area Electrical Workers Pension Trust Fund, 

as successor and on behalf of Sacramento Valley Electrical Workers’ Pension Trust 

(“Plaintiffs”) and providing Plaintiffs thirty (30) days to file a Third Amended 

Complaint (“TAC”) (i.e., no later than August 6, 2007). Counsel for the parties have 

discussed the issues likely to be raised in the TAC, and counsel for Defendants have 

preliminarily determined that their responsive pleading will likely be another motion 

to dismiss. However, because of the current calendars of the counsel (including, but 

not limited to, court appearances and previously scheduled international vacations), 

the parties have agreed to the following timetable: 

The parties would like to schedule the hearing for the motion to dismiss on 

October 22, 2007 at 10:00 a.m. Given this hearing date, Defendants would file their 

moving papers no later than September 10, 2007, with Plaintiffs’ opposition due 

September 28th and Defendants’ reply due October 15th. 

Accordingly, the parties hereby stipulate and respectfully request that the nearterm deadlines be set as follows: 

Last day to file Third Amended Complaint August 6, 2007 

Last day to file motion to dismiss: September 10, 2007 

Last day to file opposition: September 28, 2007

(949) 757-2800 

Last day to file reply: October 15, 2007 

Hearing on motion to dismiss: October 22, 2007 

Good cause exists for this Stipulation because of scheduling conflicts involving 

other cases, as well as previously scheduled vacations of counsel for the parties, and 

because this proposed schedule will allow counsel ample time to analyze and brief 

the relevant issues.
