JOINT STIPULATION PURSUANT TO LOCAL RULE 6-1 AND [PROPOSED] ORDER EXTENDING TIME TO 

RESPOND TO COMPLAINTS IN RELATED ACTIONS - CASE NO. 07-CV-06357-JSW 

1

Pursuant to Local Rule 6-1(a), in light of the related “Motion for Transfer and 

Consolidation of Related Actions to the Northern District of California Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §

1407” now pending before the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation (“JPML”), Plaintiffs 

Woodrow Clark II and James Evans, (“Plaintiffs”) and Defendant Northwest Airlines and United 

Air Lines, Inc. (collectively, “Defendants”), through counsel, hereby stipulate and agree as 

follows: 

IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED AND AGREED that Defendants’ time to answer, move or 

otherwise plead is enlarged until the later of: (1) the date when the Defendants would otherwise 

be required to a file a response pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12; or (2) 45 days 

after the JPML grants, denies, or otherwise disposes of the pending motion. If a consolidated 

amended complaint is filed by Plaintiffs in a single transferee Court and served on Defendants, 

Defendants’ time to answer, move, or otherwise plead is enlarged until 45 days after such service. 

In addition, given the length of time likely to be required by the JMPL to resolve the pending 

motion, Plaintiffs and Defendants agree that the dates set in this Court’s December 14, 2007 

Order Setting Initial Case Management Conference and ADR Deadlines should be vacated. 

IT IS FURTHER STIPULATED AND AGREED that defense counsel shall accept service 

on behalf of the Defendants of the summons and complaints in the above-captioned matter, 

including any amended or consolidated complaints, and further, that such Defendants shall not 

contest sufficiency of process or service of process. This Stipulation does not constitute a waiver 

of any other defense including, but not limited to, the defenses of lack of personal or subject 

matter jurisdiction or improper venue. Nothing in this paragraph shall obligate any Defendant to 

answer, move, or otherwise respond to any complaint until the time provided in the preceding 

paragraph. The above notwithstanding, should any Defendant, except pursuant to court order, 

respond to any complaint in a related matter filed in another United States District Court prior to 

the date contemplated by this stipulation, then such Defendant shall make a simultaneous 

response to the complaint in the above-captioned matter.
