JOINT STIPULATION

Case No. 3:17-cv-04830-JST

Pursuant to Civil Local Rules 7-11 and 7-12, the parties respectfully request that the 

Court permit Defendants Depomed, Inc., Arthur Joseph Higgins, James A. Schoeneck, and 

August J. Moretti (collectively, “Defendants”) and Plaintiff Inchen Huang to exceed—by 5 

pages—the page limitations that would otherwise apply, under Civil Local Rules 7-2 and 7-3, 

to the following two briefs: (i) Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss the First Amended Complaint,

due on April 9, 2018; and (ii) Plaintiffs’ Opposition thereto, due on June 8, 2018. If this 

request is granted, the page limit for Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss will be 30 pages, and the 

page limit for Plaintiff’s Opposition will be 30 pages. 

Defendants sought consent from Plaintiffs for an extended brief because the 98-page 

Amended Complaint contains claims against four defendants and challenges numerous 

statements over a 25-month Class Period, and Defendants believe the short extension of the 

page limit enables a brief that will facilitate the Court’s consideration of the motion. Plaintiffs

have agreed to Defendants’ request, provided that Plaintiffs can file an extended opposition

brief, if necessary, to address the arguments in Defendants’ extended brief in support of its 

Motion to Dismiss. 

Neither party has made any prior request to exceed page limitations for any briefing in 

this case.

Accordingly, the parties hereby respectfully request that the Court, by signing below, 

modify the applicable page limitations, as set forth below:

1. The page limit for Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss the First Amended Complaint 

shall be extended from 25 pages to 30 pages.

2. The page limit Plaintiffs’ Opposition shall be extended from 25 pages to 30 

pages.
