STIPULATION: TELESPACE LLC AND INTELEPEER RE BRIEFING & HEARING DATES & [PROPOSED] ORDER

USDC ND/CA, San Francisco Div., Case No. 3:19-cv-04294-WHO

1022316\304783055.v1

Defendant INTELEPEER CLOUD COMMUNICATIONS, LLC (“IntelePeer Cloud”), (collectively 

the “Parties”), through their counsel of record, stipulate as follows

RECITALS

1. TeleSpace filed its First Amended Third-Party Complaint on November 8, 2019,

naming IntelePeer Cloud as Third-Party Defendant. Dkt. 33. 

2. On November 22, 2019, IntelePeer Cloud filed a Motion to Dismiss (“Motion”)

pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6). The Motion was noticed for and set to be heard 

on January 8, 2020. Dkt. 41. 

3. Based on the Motion having been filed on November 22, 2019, the response papers

are presently due by Friday December 6, 2019; and any replies would be due by Friday, December 

13, 2019. 

4. Previously, TeleSpace obtained: following removal of this action from state court, a

two-week extension of time to file its Answer to Plaintiff’s Complaint (by stipulation; Dkt. 7); and a 

two-week extension of time to file the original third-party complaint (by stipulation and Court 

approval; Dkt. 17-18). In October 2019, all parties to this action obtained by stipulation an order 

continuing the first Case Management Conference from November 5, 2019 to December 4, 2019, 

which date was then re-set by the Court to a day earlier (December 3, 2019). Dkt. 29, 40. 

5. On November 26, 2019, just before commencement of the Thanksgiving holiday, all

parties joined in: the Stipulation and Proposed Order Selecting Early Settlement Conference with a 

Magistrate Judge (filed by Telespace; Dkt. 43); and the Joint Case Management Statement (also filed 

by TeleSpace; Dkt. 45). Pursuant to the Stipulation for Early Settlement Conference with a 

Magistrate Judge (“ESC”), the Parties will seek to complete the ESC by February 14, 2020. 

Accordingly, the Parties are attempting to have the ESC scheduled for the earliest date possible that 

is convenient to all parties, their counsel, and the Magistrate Judge (not yet assigned). 

6. With the goal of having the ESC scheduled for a convenient date in December 2019,

January 2020, or, if necessary, February 2020, the parties and their counsel are seeking to minimize 

the expense of this action and focus their efforts on scheduling, preparing for, and participating in 

the ESC with a Magistrate Judge. In connection with that goal, the attorneys are coordinating the

STIPULATION: TELESPACE LLC AND INTELEPEER RE BRIEFING & HEARING DATES & [PROPOSED] ORDER

USDC ND/CA, San Francisco Div., Case No. 3:19-cv-04294-WHO

1022316\304783055.v1

schedules of three separate law firms (i.e., counsel for Plaintiff, Defendant / Third-Party Plaintiff, 

and Third-Party Defendant) and their clients. Of these six (6) participants (i.e., three parties; and 

counsel for each party), only one resides in the San Francisco Bay Area; the other five participants 

will be travelling from either another state or another region of California. 

7. Moreover, the ability of the parties and their counsel to confirm a suitable date and

time for the ESC will be affected by the Holiday schedule in December 2019 and January 2020; and 

this schedule is likewise expected to affect the availability of the pool of Magistrate Judges and, in 

turn, the availability of the particular Magistrate Judge assigned to conduct the ESC. For example, 

as stated in the Joint Case Management Statement (Dkt., pages 8 and 11): Plaintiff’s counsel will 

not be available during the period December 18, 2019 to and including January 10, 2020; and 

TeleSpace’s counsel will not be available during the periods December 23, 2019 through January 3, 

2020 and January 15-23, 2020. All parties are available the week of January 27-31, 2020. 

8. Given the focus of all parties on scheduling, preparing for and participating in the

ESC and the parties’ shared interest in minimizing the expense of the action, TeleSpace and 

IntelePeer Cloud agree, as provided in this Stipulation, to extend the due dates for the briefing 

schedule and to continue the hearing date on the Motion. These parties jointly request: that the dates 

for the Response to and Reply on the Motion be extended, such that the Responses will be due by 

January 7, 2020, and the Replies will be due by January 20, 2020; and that the hearing be continued 

to February 12, 2020 or such later date that is convenient for the Court.

9. The requested extension of the Motion’s briefing schedule and hearing date is

intended to: facilitate efficient scheduling of the ESC; allow the Parties the opportunity to resolve 

the matter in the ESC before completion of further briefing and/or the hearing on the Motion; and 

serve the interest of all parties in minimizing the expense of this litigation. 

STIPULATION

For the reasons stated above, the Parties hereto stipulate that the dates for Responses and 

Replies on the Motion be extended, such that the Responses will be due by January 7, 2020, and 

Replies will be due by January 20, 2020. The Parties hereto further stipulate that the hearing on the 

Motion shall be continued to February 12, 2020, or such later date that is convenient for the Court.
