STIPULATION AND ORDER SELECTING ADR PROCESS 

CASE NO. C 06-00168 MJ 

OUR CHILDREN’S EARTH FOUNDATION vs. STANDARD IRON AND METALS 

COMPANY, JASON ALLEN 

The parties are currently engaged in an informal settlement process, the results of which 

will be known to the parties and the Court by the time of the initial case management 

conference on April 11, 2006. Depending on the results of this informal process, it is 

possible either that no mediation will be required (because the parties will have reached a 

settlement) or that a settlement conference would be appreciably more likely to meet the 

needs of the parties (e.g., because the parties are very close to a settlement, but have a 

few remaining fundamental differences). For these reasons, the parties request that the 

Court refrain from issuing an order referring the case to mediation until the April 11 

conference.
