Case 5:14-cv-04436-EJD Document 21 Filed 06/17/15 Page 1 of 3
1 Plaintiff Celia Stauty Luis ("Plaintiff') and Defendant Metropolitan Life 

2 Insurance Company ("MetLife") hereby stipulate to continue the Settlement 

3 Conference presently set before the United States Magistrate Judge Nathan Cousins 

4 from June 26, 2015 to August 7, 2015. 

5 Good cause exists for the continuance as MetLife's client representative, and 

6 person with the most knowledge of the facts and legal arguments, has a previously 

7 unknown conflict that will prevent him to travel from New York to the Settlement 

8 Conference on June 26, 2015. He will be available to participate in person on 

9 August 7, 2015. 

10 The parties checked with Judge Cousin's clerk, Lili Harrell, who confirmed 

11 that August 7, 2015 at 9:30 a.m. was an available time for the rescheduled 

12 conference and the parties advised Ms. Harrell that August 7, 2015 was acceptable 

13 date. The only available date with Judge Cousin's calendar in July was July 21, 

14 2015, which presented a conflict with MetLife's counsel.
