JOINT STIPULATION TO VACATE CMC AND VACATE OR EXTEND DEADLINE TO RESPOND TO 

AMENDED CONSOLIDATED COMPLAINT – CASE NO. 14-CV-05200-EMC

TO THE COURT, THE PARTIES, AND THEIR ATTORNEYS OF RECORD:

Pursuant to Civil Local Rule 7-12, Plaintiffs Ronald Gillette, Abdul Mohamed, Shannon 

Wise, Brandon Farmer, and Meghan Christenson (collectively, “Plaintiffs”), Defendants Uber 

Technologies, Inc. and Rasier, LLC (together, “Uber”), and Defendant Hirease, LLC (“Hirease”) 

(together with Plaintiffs and Uber, the “Parties”), by and through their respective counsel of record, 

hereby stipulate as follows:

WHEREAS, on March 30, 2016, the Parties participated in mediation before a private 

mediator. While the mediation was productive, the parties were unable to reach resolution on March 

30, 2016, and scheduled a second day of mediation for May 2, 2016.

WHEREAS, on April 12, 2016, the Court granted a joint stipulation filed by the Parties, 

permitting Plaintiffs to file an Amended Consolidated Complaint and setting the deadline for Uber 

and Hirease to respond to the Complaint as “thirty (30) days after the amended consolidated 

complaint is filed or thirty (30) days after the second day of mediation occurs, whichever is later ....” 

ECF No. 170 at 3.

WHEREAS, on April 13, 2016, Plaintiffs filed an Amended Consolidated Complaint. See 

ECF No. 171.

WHEREAS, on May 2, 2016, the Parties participated in a second mediation session before a 

private mediator. The Parties were unable to reach a settlement-in-principle at that time; however, 

the mediation session was productive and settlement discussions continued after that session.

WHEREAS, on May 26, 2016, the Court granted a joint stipulation filed by the Parties setting 

June 22, 2016 as the deadline for Uber and Hirease to respond to the Amended Consolidated 

Complaint, in light of the “continuing resolution discussions” between the Parties. ECF No. 174.

WHEREAS, Plaintiffs filed a notice of settlement on June 15, 2016, advising the Court that 

Plaintiffs and Uber have reached a settlement-in-principle in this case, have “executed a 

Memorandum of Understanding (‘MOU’), and are in the process of preparing [a] final settlement 

agreement and related documentation.” ECF No. 178 at 1.

WHEREAS, Plaintiffs and Hirease continue to engage in good faith settlement negotiations in 

an effort to reach their own settlement.

JOINT STIPULATION TO VACATE CMC AND VACATE OR EXTEND DEADLINE TO RESPOND TO 

AMENDED CONSOLIDATED COMPLAINT – CASE NO. 14-CV-05200-EMC

WHEREAS, this is Defendants’ third request to vacate or extend the time to respond to the 

Amended Consolidated Complaint.

WHEREAS, the Court previously scheduled a Case Management Conference for June 30, 

2016 (10:00 a.m.), and Civil Local Rule 16-10(d) therefore requires the Parties to file a Joint Case 

Management Statement on or before June 23, 2016.

WHEREAS, in light of the settlement-in-principle between Plaintiffs and Uber, as well as the 

ongoing resolution discussions between Plaintiffs and Hirease, the Parties believe that it would 

preserve the time and resources of both the Parties and the Court to vacate the Case Management 

Conference scheduled for June 30, 2016 and the accompanying Joint Case Management Statement 

filing deadline.

NOW THEREFORE, the Parties stipulate, subject to the approval of this Court, as follows:

1. In light of the settlement-in-principle between Uber and Plaintiffs, Uber’s deadline to 

file a responsive pleading is hereby vacated, until and unless this Court denies Plaintiffs’ forthcoming 

motion(s) for preliminary and/or final settlement approval. Should this Court deny Plaintiffs’ 

motion(s) for preliminary and/or final settlement approval, Uber’s responsive pleading deadline shall 

be thirty (30) days after the Court issues its order denying settlement approval.

2. Hirease’s deadline to file a responsive pleading is hereby extended to July 6, 2016.

3. The Case Management Conference scheduled for June 30, 2016 (10:00 a.m.) is 

vacated. Therefore, the parties shall not be required to submit a Joint Case Management Statement 

on or before June 23, 2016.
