STIPULATION 

Plaintiffs Los Altos Boots, Inc.; Wild West Boots, Inc.; Boot Star, Inc.; Larson Leather 

Company; Magna Leather Corporation; Croko International, Inc., and Snappers S.A. de C.V. 

(collectively, Plaintiffs), Defendants Rob Bonta, in his official capacity as Attorney General of 

California, and Charlton Bonham, in his official capacity as Director of the California Department 

of Fish and Wildlife (California Defendants), and Humane Society of the United States, Humane 

Society International, and Center for Biological Diversity (Defendant Intervenors) (collectively, 

Defendants), by and through their counsel, agree to and request that the Court approve the terms 

of the following stipulation: 

WHEREAS, in April 2023, the parties entered into a stipulation on the summary judgment 

briefing schedule for this case. Los Altos Boots v. Bonta, ECF Docket No. 53. 

WHEREAS, in July 2023, this Court issued a final judgment in April in Paris v. Becerra, 

2:19-cv-02471-KJM-CKD (April in Paris). April in Paris, ECF Docket No. 87 (Final Judgment). 

WHEREAS, the parties have agreed to enter a stipulated judgment and are awaiting 

signatures from the respective representative of each of the parties. Thus, it appears this matter 

will be resolved without the need for further briefing. 

WHEREAS, to give the parties more time to obtain signatures of the respective 

representatives of each party, the parties request that this Court vacate the current briefing 

schedule and set a status conference date in late March 2024. The parties anticipate that this will 

give the respective representatives sufficient time to sign the stipulation for judgment. 

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties stipulate to and propose for the Court to vacate the current 

briefing schedule for the parties’ motions for summary judgment (MSJs). The parties also 

stipulate to and respectfully request the Court schedule a status conference for March _____, 

2024.
