STIPULATION AND PROPOSED ORDER

TO MODIFY SCHEDULING ORDER;

DECLARATION OF STEVE SCHMID IN

SUPPORT THEREOF

Pursuant to the Court’s April 2, 2010 Order (Docket No. 307), hearing on the parties

cross-motions for summary judgment is scheduled for June 8, 2010. The April 2, 2010 order

specified a briefing schedule set “in accordance with a normal 35-day calendar under Civil

Local Rule 7.” Therefore, opposition briefs are due on May 18, 2010 and reply briefs are due

on May 25, 2010.

Due to the factual complexity of Relator’s Motion for Partial Summary Judgment,

Defendants will require additional time to file their opposition. Relator has agreed to a

modification of the April 2, 2010 Order with the Court’s permission. Therefore, the parties

hereby submit the following stipulation and order to modify the current scheduling order as

DECLARATION OF STEVE SCHMID IN SUPPORT OF STIPULATION

AND PROPOSED ORDER TO MODIFY SCHEDULING ORDER

I, Steve Schmid, declare as follows:

1. I am employed as a Deputy County Counsel for the County of Santa Clara and am

duly licensed to practice law before this Court and all California courts. I am one of the

attorneys of record for the County of Santa Clara Defendants.

2. Relator’s motion for partial summary judgment is voluminous and data-intensive. It

will require more time to efficiently and completely respond to the factual portion of the motion

than can be accomplished under the current briefing schedule.

3. This request for an order to modify the scheduling order is made jointly pursuant to

stipulation. Counsel for Relator and Santa Clara County Defendants have met and conferred

regarding the proposed modified schedule.

I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the State of California that the

foregoing is true and correct. Executed this 27 day of April, 2010 at San Jose, California. th
