STIPULATION

Use-Plaintiff Cemex Construction Materials Pacific, LLC (“Use-Plaintiff”) and Defendant 

Gray Insurance Company (“Gray” and collectively with Use-Plaintiff, the “Parties”), by and 

through their respective counsel of record, hereby stipulate and agree as follows:

WHEREAS, Use-Plaintiff filed the above-entitled action against Defendants Romero 

General Construction Corp., Gray Insurance Company (“Gray”), and Jeffrey Rohring on June 19, 

2014 and filed its First Amended Complaint against these Defendants on June 20, 2014;

WHEREAS, based upon the information then available to it, Use-Plaintiff alleged in its 

First Amended Complaint that Defendant Gray was liable on a Payment Bond given by Defendant 

Gray Insurance Company for the protection of all persons supplying labor and materials in the 

prosecution of a public work of improvement known as Travis Air Base-Parker Road Paving 

located in Fairfield, California and designated as Contract No. FA4427-11-D-0101 (the “Project”);

WHEREAS, Defendant Gray has come forward with evidence satisfactory to Use-Plaintiff 

indicating that Defendant Gray is not liable on the Payment Bond attached to the First Amended 

Complaint as Exhibit 2;

WHEREAS, Use-Plaintiff and Defendant Gray have met and conferred regarding the 

content and effect of the aforesaid evidence, and regarding the potential existence of other 

payment bonds with bearing on this action, and agree that dismissal of Defendant Gray from this 

action, without prejudice, is proper and in the interest of justice at this time;

AND WHEREAS, the Parties make this request not for purposes of delay, nor to hinder the 

progress of the above-entitled action, but instead to conserve the resources of the Court and the 

Parties and to promote efficient resolution of the litigation.

NOW, THEREFORE, the Parties hereby stipulate and agree that good cause supports this 

Stipulated Request for Dismissal, and jointly move this honorable Court to order:

1. That Use-Plaintiff’s claims against Defendant Gray are dismissed without

prejudice, pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(a)(2), leaving intact Use-Plaintiff’s 

claims against Defendants Romero General Construction Corp. and Jeffrey Rohring; and
