and proposed order extending time to complete mediation. 

1. On August 12, 2009, per stipulation and court order, a court appointed mediation was

to be completed by November 12, 2009. 

2. On September 15, 2009, Mr. Victor Schacter was named as the court-appointed

mediator to this matter. 

 3. On October 1, 2010, by mutual agreement of all parties via conference call, the

previously scheduled January 12, 2009 mediation was taken off calendar. On

February 22, 2010, Mr. Schacter’s appointment as mediator was vacated due to a

scheduling conflict. 

5. On December 28, 2009, a case management scheduling order set the new mediation

deadline for May 15, 2010. 

6. On March 8, 2010 a second mediator, retired Judge Suzanne Nussbaum was

appointed and a mediation was again set for May 5, 2010. However, after some

discussion amongst counsel regarding Judge Nussbaum’s inexperience handling

collective cases, both parties objected to Judge Nussbaum’s appointment as mediator. 

 7. On April 13, 2010, a third mediator, Thomas Denver was appointed as mediator. A

tentative mediation has been set for June 22, 2010. 

8. Due to the recent, multiple appointments of mediators, both parties request that a new 

mediation deadline be set for July 15, 2010. 

9. There are no additional anticipated changes to the case management order at this

time. 

Respectfully Submitted,
