DEFS' STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER 

RE REBUTTAL EXPERT DISCLOSURE 

C-07-0051 MHP

I. The parties, having met and conferred by and through their respective 

counsel, stipulate that the parties may have a three-day extension, from May 6, 2008, to 

May 9, 2008 to make any rebuttal expert disclosures. Good cause for the order exists for 

the following reasons. 

1. On April 8, 2008, Plaintiff served three opening expert witness reports—on 

issues relating to psychology, interview practices, and alleged economic damages. As the 

parties were reviewing expert reports and preparing their own, they also were preparing 

their summary judgment papers. Defendants filed three summary judgment motions on 

March 24, 2008, with Plaintiff’s opposition papers due April 14, 2008, and Defendants’ 

reply papers filed April 21, 2008. The papers were set for oral argument on May 5, 2008. 

In light of the need to prepare their summary judgment papers and oral arguments at the 

same time that they were identifying any rebuttal experts, Defendants requested and 

Plaintiff agreed to an initial one-week continuance and another three-day continuance of 

the rebuttal expert disclosure deadline from May 6, 2008 to May 9, 2008. 

2. Prior schedule modifications. Based on the parties’ stipulated request, the 

original expert witness disclosure date was extended from February 15, 2008 to February 

25, 2008, the rebuttal expert witness disclosure was extended from March 8, 2008 to 

March 17, 2008, and the close of expert discovery, which had not previously been set, was 

set for April 15, 2008. On February 22, 2008, the parties jointly requested an enlargement 

of the expert witness discovery deadlines in order to accommodate Defendants’ 

scheduling of a mental examination of the Plaintiff. The Court approved that Stipulation 

on February 26, 2008. The parties thereafter requested an additional one-week extension 

of the expert discovery schedule, which the Court granted on April 7, 2008. By the 

parties’ stipulated request, on April 29, 2008, Defendants were granted a further one-week 

extension of their rebuttal expert disclosures from April 29, 2008 to May 6, 2008. 

 IT IS SO STIPULATED.
