UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

Garden City Boxing Club, Inc.

 Plaintiff,

 vs.

Nghia T. Nguyen, et al.

 Defendant.

CASE NO. C 06-5637 RMW

PLAINTIFF’S EX PARTE

APPLICATION FOR AN ORDER

CONTINUING CASE MANAGEMENT

CONFERENCE; AND ORDER

Plaintiff Garden City Boxing Club, Inc., hereby applies ex parte for an order continuing the

initial Case Management Conference in this action, presently set for Friday, February 9, 2007 at 10:30

a.m. to a new date approximately thirty (30) to forty-five (45) days forward. This request will be, and is,

made pursuant to Civil L.R. 7-11, and is necessitated by the fact that Plaintiff still has not perfected

service of process as to either one of the defendants named to this action. Concurrent with the filing of

this pleading, Plaintiff has filed a request for an extension of time to complete service. 

The specific problems with service that the Plaintiff has encountered as to each defendant may

be summarized as follows:

1.) With regard to defendant Kim Thuy Ho, individually and d/b/a Thoa Cafe, this particular

person may or may not have a valid business address, but if he/she does, such is unknown to the Plaintiff

at this time. The residential address Plaintiff’s counsel is aware of has also been unsucessful because the

process server has been unable to gain access to the apartment complex, and when access is

gained, the process server has not been able to complete service because no one answers the door.

In addition, Plaintiff’s counsel is not alltogether certain that this individual continues to reside at

this particular address because he/she is not referenced on the apartment directory within the vestibule.

2.) With regard to defendant Nghia T. Nguyen, individually and d/b/a Thoa Cafe, Plaintiff’s

prior attempt at service has been unsuccessful because this particular defendant no longer resides at the

Autinori Court address in San Jose. Our recent attempts to determine the current whereabouts of the

defendant have been unsuccessful. Nevertheless, Plaintiff’s counsel is confident that this particular

individual may be skiptraced by an investigative firm specializing in such, and therefore request this

brief additional continuance so that such additional research may be conducted and service may be

completed, service of publication requested, or this particular defendant may be dismissed from this

action.

As a result of the foregoing, as of this writing, Plaintiff’s counsel has not conferred with either

defendant concerning the claims, discovery, settlement, ADR or any of the other pertinent issues

involving the case itself or the preparation of a Case Management Conference Statement. 

WHEREFORE, Plaintiff respectfully requests that this Honorable Court continue the Case

Management Conference presently scheduled for Friday, February 9, 2007 at 10:30 am to a new date

approximately thirty (30) to forty-five (45) days forward in order that each of the defendants may be

served and Plaintiff’s counsel may thereafter confer with the defendants and/or their counsel and

thereafter prepare and file a joint Case Management Conference Statement for the Court’s review.

Respectfully submitted,

Dated: February 7, 2007 /s/ Thomas P. Riley
