UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

BAY AREA PAINTERS AND TAPERS

PENSION TRUST FUND, et al.

Plaintiffs,

v.

J.F. McCRAY PLASTERING, INC., a 

California Corporation,

Defendant.

Case No.: C14-0604 SI

PLAINTIFFS’ REQUEST TO CONTINUE 

CASE MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE; 

[PROPOSED] ORDER THEREON

Date: January 23, 2015

Time: 2:30 p.m,

Dept.: Courtroom 10, 19th Floor, San 

Francisco, CA

Judge: Honorable Susan Illston 

Plaintiffs herein respectfully request that the Case Management Conference, currently on 

calendar for January 23, 2015 be continued for approximately sixty (60) days. Good cause exists 

for the continuance, as follows:

1. As the Court’s records will reflect, this action was filed on February 7, 2014 to 

collect unpaid contributions and related amounts owed to Plaintiffs for work performed by 

Defendant’s employees.

2. Defendant was served with the Complaint on March 12, 2014, and a Proof of 

Service of Summons was filed with the Court on March 31, 2014. Defendant failed to plead or 

otherwise respond to the lawsuit, and the Clerk entered Defendant’s default on April 7, 2014. 

3. Plaintiffs have made several attempts to resolve this matter informally with 

Defendant. However, Defendant has failed to respond and appears to have ceased operations.

4. Plaintiffs recovered payment for some of Defendant’s delinquent contributions 

directly from general contractors Defendant worked for during the relevant time period, and made 

a claim on Defendant’s Wage and Fringe Benefit Responsibility Bond. 

5. The Court continued the previously scheduled Case Management Conference to 

allow time for Plaintiffs to attempt to resolve this matter informally by collecting payments from 

either the general contractors and/or the surety.

6. Since then, no additional amounts were recovered from general contractors. 

However, Plaintiffs are currently negotiating a settlement with the surety. 

7. There are no issues that need to be addressed by the parties at the currently 

scheduled Case Management Conference. In the interest of conserving costs, as well as the Court’s 

time and resources, Plaintiffs respectfully request that the Case Management Conference be 

continued for approximately sixty (60) days to allow sufficient time for Plaintiffs to continue their 

attempts to resolve this matter informally.

I declare under penalty of perjury that I am the attorney for the Plaintiffs in the above 

entitled action, and that the foregoing is true of my own knowledge.

Executed this 16th day of January 2015, at San Francisco, California.
