Pursuant to Civil Local Rules 6-2 and 7-12, Representative Plaintiff Edward Musgrave 

(“Plaintiff”), individually, and on behalf of all others similarly situated, and Defendant 

ICC/Marie Callender’s Gourmet Products Division (“Defendant”), by and through their 

respective counsel of record, hereby agree and stipulate as follows: 

WHEREAS Plaintiff’s Motion for Class Certification is currently due to be filed on 

November 3, 2015 pursuant to Judge Gilliam’s June 16, 2015 Order (Dkt. No. 66) and 

Defendant’s Opposition to Plaintiff’s Motion for Class Certification is currently due to be filed 

on November 17, 2015; 

WHEREAS, to avoid wasting the Parties’ and this Court’s time and resources, the 

Parties had agreed to informally stay this litigation over the last five months in order to explore 

settlement and global resolution of this case; 

WHEREAS, after exchanging multiple sets of mediation-privileged documents and data 

points, involving outside accounting experts and scheduling a second mediation to take place on 

October 22, 2015, the Parties now agree that further settlement discussions would not be 

productive; 

WHEREAS the Parties have restarted litigation efforts and are diligently working to 

obtain the discovery needed to file their respective class certification briefs, including expert 

discovery, but need additional time to do so; 

WHEREAS the class certification briefing schedule has been modified once before (Dkt. 

No. 43); 

NOW, IT IS THEREFORE STIPULATED AND AGREED, by and between the 

Parties through their respective attorneys of record and subject to the approval of the Court as 

follows: Plaintiff shall file his Motion for Class Certification by January 5, 2016; Defendant shall 

file its Opposition by February 5, 2016; and Plaintiff shall file his Reply by February 26, 2016. 

The Parties stipulate and request that the hearing on this matter be continued to March 16, 

2016 or to another date in accordance with the Court’s convenience.
