Plaintiffs, 

v. 

DAIMLER CHRYSLER CORPORATION, and

DOES ONE through ONE HUNDRED, 

Defendants. 

Case No. 05-01012 JL 

STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] 

ORDER RE CONTINUATION OF NONEXPERT DISCOVERY DEADLINE 

The parties, by and through their attorneys of record, hereby submit the following 

Stipulation to continue the deadline for non-expert discovery in the above-captioned matter from 

August 11, 2006 to September 30, 2006. 

REASON FOR REQUEST

Nonexpert discovery has taken longer than expected, and both parties have further 

discovery to complete. Defendant wishes to schedule a medical exam of plaintiff Isabel Cortes 

and has been coordinating with the schedule of plaintiff and the physician. Plaintiffs are still 

waiting for responses to written discovery and are in the process of coordinating depositions of 

Chrysler employees in Michigan. Both parties desire to complete the deposition of the emergency 

response professionals who responded to the scene of this incident.

 The parties stipulate and request that the Court continue the deadline for completion of 

non-expert discovery from August 11, 2006 to September 30, 2006. 

PREVIOUS TIME MODIFICATIONS

 The parties stipulated to, and the Court ordered, a continuation of the mediation deadline 

from December 16, 2005 to January 6, 2006. The parties stipulated to, and the court ordered, a 

continuation of the mediation deadline from January 6, 2006 to March 30, 2006. 

EFFECT OF PROPOSED TIME MODIFICATION ON CASE SCHEDULE

 The parties do not foresee negative effects on the case schedule resulting from this 

proposed deadline modification. The parties agree that, with a trial date of February 12, 2007, the 

three intervening months between the proposed non-expert discovery deadline and trial will be 

sufficient time to prepare the case for trial. 

STIPULATION

 The parties stipulate and request that the Court continue the deadline for non-expert 

discovery in the above-referenced matter from August 11, 2006 to September 30, 2006. 

IT IS SO STIPULATED.
