 Re: Moton v. Hanjin Shipping, 

 Case No.: 07-01483-SI

Our File No: 2554

Dear Judge Illston: 

We have recently dismissed Hanjin Shipping because they were merely the timecharterer of the vessel on which our client, David Moton, was injured. The owner of the 

vessel was J.P. Samartzis Maritime Enterprises Co. S.A., based in Greece. We

accordingly amended the complaint, and are in the process of getting the first amended 

complaint translated so that we can serve J.P. Samartzis in Greece. We are also, 

informally, attempting to locate their local counsel. 

We are accordingly respectfully requesting a sixty-day continuance of the case 

conference presently on calendar for Friday, June 22, 2007 to permit the case to be at 

issue. Thank you. 

 Sincerely yours, 

 BIRNBERG & ASSOCIATES
