STIPULATIOND AND [PROPOSED] ORDER CONTINUING ADR DEADLINE

deadline due to difficulties accommodating the parties’ schedules. The parties are set for mediation 

on October 19, 2016.

Pursuant to the May 31, 2016 Stipulation and Order Selecting ADR Process, the 

parties had agreed to hold the ADR session by September 30, 2016. The parties initially agreed on a

mediation date within that timeframe but had to reschedule due to conflicts that arose after the 

parties filed the Stipulation. October 19 was the first date available for all parties, including out-ofstate representatives, counsel, and the mediator. The parties have agreed to mediate on October 19 

with the assistance of the mediator appointed by the Court, Kyungah (Kay) Suk. The parties 

therefore request that the deadline to complete ADR be continued for three weeks to accommodate 

this change. This is the first request to continue the mediation deadline.
