STIPULATION TO EXTEND TIME TO 

COMPLETE MEDIATION;

[PROPOSED ORDER]

Pursuant to ADR L.R. 6-5

Pursuant to ADR Local Rule 6-5 and Civil Local Rule 7, Defendant Esprit US Distribution, 

LTD, (“Esprit”) and Levi Straus & Co (“LS&CO”) request a reasonable extension of time to 

complete mediation in the above entitle matter. 

There is good cause warranting a reasonable extension. Esprit has just recently retained new 

counsel in this matter, and requests a two week extension to allow new counsel to properly transition

and familiarize itself with the case. A reasonable extension of the mediation deadline on this ground

will help facilitate a more productive and complete mediation between the parties. LS&CO does not 

oppose Esprit’s request for a two week extension. 

The mediation date is currently set for September 18, 2007. The parties request an extension 

to October 2 to complete mediation.
