2 JOINT STIPULATION AND ORDER

Case No. 3:16-cv-00506-WHO

On July 18, 2016, the Court entered a stipulated Order to relate FOX Factory, Inc. v. SRAM, 

LLC, Case Nos. 3:16-cv-00506-WHO and 5:16-cv-03716-WHA (now -WHO), which contained a 

stipulated case schedule to synchronize dates in both cases through claim construction. Dkt. 35 

(Case No. 3:16-cv-00506-WHO). In that stipulation, the parties respectfully suggested that a Case 

Management Conference be set “in the next few weeks” to schedule further dates for fact discovery, 

expert discovery, dispositive motions, and trial. Id. at 1. Although the parties were anticipating a 

CMC in approximately August 2016, the Court set the next CMC for August 22, 2017.

1

 The parties 

agree that, with the Court’s permission, it would be beneficial to convene an earlier CMC in both 

cases to discuss a mediation schedule and to set dates for fact discovery, expert discovery, 

dispositive motions, and trial. 

Accordingly, the parties HEREBY STIPULATE AND JOINTLY REQUEST that the Court 

set a CMC on August 23 or 30, 2016, or September 20, 2016, when counsel for both parties are 

available, and that counsel will file a joint case management conference statement at least seven days 

before the CMC. 

 

1

 Lead counsel for Plaintiff FOX Factory intended to request in the stipulation that the 

conference not be set on Tuesday, August 16, 2016, due to a previously scheduled family vacation, 

but inadvertently referred to August 16, 2017 instead, which may have been confusing to the Court.
