 Plaintiffs hereby request that the Court continue the initial scheduling conference currently set 

for March 12, 2007, at 9:00 a.m. to June 11, 2007. Defendant was served with the summons and 

complaint on December 16, 2006. Defendant has not answered or otherwise responded to the 

complaint. However, on January 8, 2007, the parties, each through their counsel, stipulated to extend 

Defendant’s time to answer the complaint until March 8, 2007. Further, the parties are now discussing 

settlement in this matter, and are hopeful that a resolution can be reached. A case management 

conference is therefore not necessary at this time. Plaintiffs therefore respectfully request that the 

Court continue the initial scheduling conference currently set for March 12, 2007, at 9:00 a.m. to June 

11, 2007.
