STIPULATION ON BRIEFING SCHED. RE MOTS. TO CLARIFY 

TRO – 3:15-CV-3522 (WHO)

STIPULATION

Pursuant to Local Rule 6-2, Plaintiff, National Abortion Federation and Defendants Center 

for Medical Progress, Biomax Procurement Services, LLC, and David Daleiden (hereinafter 

“Defendants”), file this stipulation to shorten the briefing schedule for Defendants’ Motion To

Clarify Temporary Restraining Order As It Relates To Nucatola Transcript (Doc. 60-3, Filed Under 

Seal) and Defendants’ Motion To Clarify Temporary Restraining Order As It Relates To Any 

Subpoenas (Doc. 61) (hereinafter “Motions for Clarification”) and state in support whereof as 

follows:

1. Defendants filed two Motions for Clarification on August 12, 2015 (Doc. 60-3 & 

61);

2. On August 14, 2015, this Court entered an Order stating that “a normal briefing 

schedule was set for this motion,” but that the schedule could be modified if parties “met and 

confer[red]” and submitted a stipulation;

3. Defendants seek to shorten the briefing schedule because a) Plaintiff has stated that 

it believes Defendants are in violation of the August 3, 2015, Temporary Restraining Order 

(“TRO”) due to the continued posting of information on its website, while Defendants dispute this 

interpretation of the TRO; and b) Defendants have received a subpoena from the State of Arizona, 

seeking production of documents whose disclosure appears to be forbidden by the TRO, and the 

subpoena has a return date of August 25, 2015. Clarification is thus needed promptly to determine 

what documents are and are not covered by the TRO.

4. Counsel for Plaintiff and Defendants have met and conferred and reached a 

stipulation on this matter.

5. Only one prior modification has been made to the schedule in this matter. The 

parties stipulated to a schedule extending the briefing and hearing schedule on NAF’s preliminary 

injunction motion (Doc. 34); this was granted on August 6, 2015 (Doc. 34).
