Plaintiffs Lindsey and Jeff Aberin, Don Awtrey, Charles Burgess, Daniel Criner, John 

Kelly, Yun-Fei Lou, Joy Matza, and Melissa Yeung (“Plaintiffs”), and Defendant American 

Honda Motor Co., Inc. (“AHM”), pursuant to Paragraph D of the Court’s Standing Order for all 

Civil Cases, and subject to approval by the Court, hereby stipulate and request that counsel for 

Plaintiffs and AHM may be permitted to appear telephonically at the Eighth Status Conference 

scheduled to take place on December 5, 2018 at 2:00 p.m. Pacific time in Courtroom 9 of the 

above-captioned Court, and in support state as follows: 

1. The parties are concurrently filing their Eighth Joint Case Management Statement

on November 28, 2018; 

2. The parties anticipate that the Status Conference will be brief because, as

evidenced by the Joint Statement, they have identified only a small number of issues meriting the 

Court’s attention at this time; 

3. The attorneys who will be appearing on behalf of AHM and Plaintiffs at the

Status Conference reside in Chicago and Philadelphia, respectively; 

4. Given the anticipated brevity of the Eighth Status Conference, the relatively high

cost of cross-country travel, and unpredictable weather, and a mutual desire to preserve party 

resources, the parties have met and conferred and agreed to submit this joint request to the Court 

for permission to appear at the Status Conference by telephone; 

WHEREFORE, THE PARTIES HEREBY STIPULATE AND REQUEST that the Court 

enter an Order permitting attorneys for all parties to appear telephonically at the Eighth Status 

Conference on December 5, 2018.
