STIPULATION TO CONTINUE MEDIATION DEADLINE 

Disclosures, Discovery Requests and Notice to Take Plaintiff’s Deposition on September 24th and 25th, 

2007; 

WHEREAS, on September 12, 2007, following receipt of Defendant’s above-referenced 

Disclosures, Discovery Requests and Deposition Notice, Plaintiff Williams served Notice of the 

unavailability of counsel between September 12th and September 24th, 2007, effectively and unilaterally 

cancelling the deposition of Plaintiff, without making disclosures or responding to the Discovery 

Requests; 

WHEREAS, the parties cannot engage in a meaningful mediation session without the mutual 

exchange of Initial Disclosures, and Defendant’s require the receipt of responses to its discovery requests

WHEREAS, Defendant is unable to complete deposition in the matter and review any discovery 

responses which may be received prior to the October 11, 2007 deadline; 

WHEREAS, the Parties believe that a continuance of the mediation deadline would best conserve

that the October 11, 2007 mediation deadline shall be continued for at least 45 days to a date determined 

by the Court thereafter. 

IT IS SO STIPULATED BETWEEN PARTIES.
