JOINT STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER 

REQUESTING CHANGE OF DATE OF FURTHER CASE 

MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE 

C06-CV-04455 JSW

Pursuant to Civil L.R. 6-2, Medtronic, Inc., Medtronic USA, Inc. and Medtronic Vascular, 

Inc. (“Medtronic”) and W.L. Gore & Associates, Inc. (“Gore”) (collectively, the “Parties”) submit 

this Joint Stipulation and [Proposed] Order. The Parties hereby stipulate to request a change of 

the date for the Parties’ Further Case Management Conference to December 21, 2007 at 1:30 PM. 

The Clerk’s Notice of November 14, 2007 set the parties’ Further Case Management 

Conference to be held on November 30, 2007. (Dkt. No. 99). However, Medtronic’s outside 

counsel, Dechert LLP, are unavailable to attend the Case Management Conference on that date, 

due to an out-of-town firm function. In order for both Parties' counsel to attend the Further Case 

Management Conference in person, the Parties have agreed to file this Joint Stipulated Request to 

change the date to the Court's next available date. This time modification will not alter any other 

court-ordered dates or the schedule for this case.
