FRCP 17(c)

COME NOW THE PARTIES, by and through their attorneys of

record, and stipulate, subject to court approval, that the Status

Conference, currently set for November 20, 2006, be continued

approximately 60 days, to January 20, 2006, or such other date as

defendants have been served with the Summons and Complaint, and the

Return of Service has been filed, but only the answer of BEST VALUE

MOVING INC. has been filed. 

2. In that not all parties have not yet answered, the FRCP

Rule 26 disclosures and initial meeting of counsel have not yet

occurred, making it difficult to adequately prepare the Joint

Status Report.

3. The plaintiff and Mayflower defendants are in the midst of

settlement discussions which may resolve the case and result in

dismissal of the action, thus avoiding the time and expense

inherent in attending the Status Conference and in preparing the: 

1) initial disclosures, 2) status conference report, and 3) initial

discovery requests.

4. No continuance of the Status Conference has been

previously sought.
