UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA, SACRAMENTO DIVISION

LEWIS MUIR,

Plaintiff,

vs.

UC DAVIS; ELIZABETH DAVID M.D.; PAUL 

PERYY, M.D.; MEGAN DALY, M.D.; and 

DOES 1-100.

Defendants.

Case No.: 2:14-CV-02716-MCE-CKD

STIPULATION TO DISMISS 

DEFENDANTS THE REGENTS OF THE

UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA’S, PAUL

PERVY, M.D.’S AND MEGAN DALY,

M.D.’S MOTION TO DISMISS 

PLAINTIFF’S COMPLAINT

PLEASE TAKE NOTICE that, the parties herein, by and through their respective attorneys, agree 

and stipulate to immediately dismiss Defendants The Regents of the University of California, Paul Pervy, 

M.D.’s and Megan Daly, M.D.’s Motion to Dismiss Plaintiff’s Complaint. 

WHEREAS this case involves multiple parties, the death of the original Plaintiff, and the recent 

discovery that the United States of America is a party; the parties have had difficulty in meeting and 

conferring with regard to amending the Complaint to include Plaintiff’s estate in place of Plaintiff John 

Muir subsequent to his death. As such, Defendants original extension on filing a responsive pleading was 

about to lapse prior to an agreement amongst parties on how they were to proceed in this matter. Thus, 

Defendants filed the aforementioned dispositive motion as a responsive pleading to Plaintiff’s complaint, 

addressing the need for an Amended Complaint. Plaintiff’s counsel is in agreement with Defendants that the 

original complaint requires an amendment, and thus parties stipulate to the following:
