CASE NO. C-05-02425 JF 

JOINT STIPULATION TO 

CONTINUE THE MARCH 24, 2006 

CASE MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE 

AND [PROPOSED] ORDER 

IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED by and between the parties hereto, through their

respective attorneys of record herein, that the Case Management Conference in this matter,

currently scheduled for March 24, 2006 before the Honorable Jeremy Fogel, be continued to May

25, 2006, or a date thereafter at the convenience of the Court.

Good cause exists for this continuance as the parties have agreed to a private mediation of

this matter for May 18, 2006, thereby conserving judicial resources. The mediation was

scheduled for February 16, 2006, but the parties were not able to go forward with mediation on

that date for the following reasons. The client representative on behalf of UNUM Life Insurance

Company of America was called for jury duty and was selected to serve as a juror on a criminal

trial, which would conflict with the February 16, 2006 mediation date. Additionally, the parties

originally agreed to mediation early in the case, before discovery took place and before

substantial resources were expended on the litigation, to allow UNUM to review medical

records to be provided by plaintiff’s counsel. Counsel for plaintiff has been providing medical

records to UNUM and is still in the process of gathering additional medical records for UNUM’s

review. The requested continuance will allow counsel for plaintiff to provide the medical

records that he would like UNUM to review in advance of mediation and will allow time for

UNUM to in fact review the medical records before mediation. 

Moreover, plaintiff’s counsel is undergoing hip replacement surgery on February 20,

2006. The mediation has been set in May to allow plaintiff’s counsel ample time to recuperate

from his surgery. 

Pursuant to local rules, this document is being electronically filed through the Court’s

ECF System. In this regard, counsel for defendant hereby attests that (1) the content of this

document is acceptable to all persons required to sign the document; (2) plaintiff’s counsel has

signed this document; and (3) the signed document is available for inspection upon request.

SO STIPULATED.
