Case No. 3:09-CV-05921-JSW

STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] 

ORDER TO EXTEND ADR DEADLINE

Plaintiff Janet Zhang and Defendant Walgreen Co. (hereinafter referred to as the 

“Parties”) hereby stipulate by and through their counsel of record, David Depolo and Brian Crone 

respectively, to extend the current deadline to complete ADR session from July 5, 2010 to July 

16, 2010. The Parties’ stipulation is based on the following: 

1. On or about March 5, 2010, the Court ordered the Parties to submit the matter to the 

agreed upon form of ADR – mediation – and provided that the “Deadline for ADR session” was 

“120 days from the date of this Order,” which would be July 5, 2010. 

2. On or about March 31, 2010, the Court provided to the Parties a Notice of Appointing 

Kristen Maloney as mediator. 

3. On April 12, 2010, the Parties held an initial mediation conference with Ms. Maloney to, 

among other items, select a mediation date.

4. As a result of counsel for Defendant Walgreen Co.’s (“Walgreens”) current trial schedule, 

the Parties initially attempted to schedule the deposition for mid-June 2010. Walgreens’ client 

representative was unavailable for the dates selected in mid-June as well as Ms. Zhang (who is 

traveling from out of the country to attend the mediation). 

5. Due to the various schedule conflicts, the first date that the Parties and their counsel are 

available for mediation is July 14, 2010. The Parties have tentatively scheduled the mediation for 

this date with the mediator and seek relief from the Court’s Order requiring completion of the 

mediation by July 5, 2010. 

 A trial date of February 28, 2010 has been set in this case. There is no further case 

management conference. Per Court Rule 6-1(a): 

The Parties may stipulate in writing, without a Court order, to . . . enlarge or 

shorten the time in matters not required to be filed or lodged with the Court, 

provided the change will not alter the date of any event or any deadline already 

fixed by the Court Order. 

 Since no deadlines are affected by enlarging the time in which the Parties can complete 

mediation, the Parties are filing this Stipulation pursuant to Local Rule 5.
