Plaintiffs Robert G. Belmont, et al. and Defendant County of San Mateo, through their 

respective counsel, respectfully submit the following stipulation and request: 

1. On August 18, 2005, Plaintiffs filed a complaint in this court. On September 26, 2005,

Defendant filed an answer to this complaint. 

2. On December 14, 2005 this court issued an order for pretrial preparation. 

3. Throughout this litigation, the parties have engaged in extensive settlement discussions in an

effort to resolve this matter amicably and to avoid expending substantial costs in litigation. In April

of 2006, the parties reached a tentative settlement. In April of 2006, the Board of Supervisors approved

the tentative settlement.

settlement agreement and to calculate back pay payments pursuant to the settlement terms.

5. In November of 2006, the Defendant provided Plaintiffs’ counsel with sample calculations of

the new payroll system and proposed back pay payments for the Plaintiffs. A dispute arose between

the parties over the methodology of calculating back pay payments. 

6. The parties with the assistance of their accounting experts have been meeting and conferring

in an effort to finalize the back pay calculations due to Plaintiffs. The parties anticipate a final

settlement in this case within sixty (60) days. 

7. With the exception of the of mandatory settlement conference set for February 15, 2007, the

parties respectfully request that this court continue all dates in the order for pretrial preparation for one

hundred twenty (120) days. 

8. Good cause exists to grant the continuance because it would save the parties and the court

resources and time if the parties can settle this case informally.

RESPECTFULLY SUBMITTED.
