Pursuant to Civil Local Rules 6-1(b) and 16-2(e), the undersigned parties hereby 

stipulate, and request that the Court enter an order continuing the Case Management Conference 

currently scheduled for October 12, 2018, at 4:00 p.m. to October 15, 2018, at 2:30 p.m. 

STIPULATION 

WHEREAS, on October 2, 2018, Plaintiffs Jiahao Kuang and Deron Cooke (together, 

“Plaintiffs”) and the Department of Defense and Secretary Mattis (together, “Defendants” and 

collectively with Plaintiffs, the “Parties”) jointly filed a Joint Statement Regarding Discovery 

(ECF No. 44). 

 WHEREAS, on October 10, 2018, the Court issued a Clerk’s Notice Setting Telephonic 

Case Management Conference, which scheduled a telephonic conference on the Parties’ Joint 

Statement Regarding Discovery for October 12, 2018, at 4:00 p.m. Pacific (ECF No. 47). 

 WHEREAS, due to various scheduling conflicts for Plaintiffs’ counsel, including the fact 

that lead counsel for Plaintiffs is out of the country on business through October 12, 2018, 

Plaintiffs respectfully request that the Court continue the hearing to October 15, 2018. 

 WHEREAS, on October 10, counsel for Plaintiffs contacted counsel for Defendants, who 

indicated that they do not oppose the requested continuance and that they are available on 

October 15, 2018. 

 WHEREAS, the Parties do not believe that the requested extension of one business day to 

conduct the hearing on the Parties’ Joint Statement Regarding Discovery will have any impact on 

any schedule set in the case. 

 THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED AND AGREED that, subject to Court 

approval, the Telephonic Case Management Conference Hearing currently set for Friday, 

October 12, 2018 at 4:00 p.m. Pacific be continued to Monday, October 15, 2018 at 2:30 p.m. 

Pacific.
