Plaintiff Michael Rodman (“Plaintiff”) and defendant Safeway Inc. (“Safeway”), by 

and through their counsel, stipulate as follows:

1. In July 2014, Plaintiff moved for partial summary judgment (ECF No. 171) 

and Safeway filed a cross-motion for Summary Judgment (ECF No. 173).

2. The parties filed their opposition briefing in connection with these motions 

in August 2014 (ECF Nos. 183 & 187) and the Court heard oral argument on both motions

on September 11, 2014 (ECF No. 198). 

3. On December 10, 2014, the Court issued an order granting Plaintiff’s Motion 

for Partial Summary Judgment and setting a further case management conference for 

January 21, 2015 at 2:00 PM with a joint case management conference statement due for 

filing on January 6, 2015 (ECF No. 223).

4. The parties held an initial conference call to discuss case management issues 

on December 19, 2014. The parties, however, are still in the process of analyzing the 

Court’s order for purposes of proposing and drafting the joint case management statement 

and proposed schedule.

5. At the time the Court issued its order and set the case management 

conference, lead defense counsel was already scheduled to be out of the country in Asia on 

vacation for the holidays and then traveling to China for work purposes, returning on 

January 13, 2014. Counsel for Safeway is concerned that they will not have sufficient time 

to contribute and prepare the joint case management conference statement and proposed 

schedule as a result of these travels and scheduled meetings in China.

6. Given the holidays and unforeseen travel issues arising out of the currently 

scheduled January 21, 2015 case management conference and related submission deadline,

the parties stipulate – subject to the Court’s approval – to continuing the case management

conference one week, to January 28, 2014 at 2:00 PM with the joint case management 

conference statement and proposed schedule due on January 21, 2014. 

IT IS SO STIPULATED.
