Plaintiffs,

v.

CITY OF OAKLAND,

Defendants.

The parties have had private settlement discussions since their initial

21 settlement conference before Magistrate Judge Larson on February 26,2008. Significant

22 progress has been made toward the final resolution of this case. The parties have agreed

23 that the City would retain disability access consultant June Kailes to assist in developing a

24 mass care and shelter plan. The parties agreed the Ms. Kailes would begin working on a

25 plan on April 1, 2008. Unfortunately, Ms. Kailes' contract with the City has been delayed

26 until she can acquire the appropriate professional liability insurance coverage. City

1 City staffers have been assisting Ms. Kailes in this respect and the parties expect this

2 issue to be resolved shortly. The parties do not believe participation in a settlement

3 conference will be fruitful until Ms, Kailes' contract has been finalized and she has had an

4 opportunity to establish the parameters of her plan. The parties have agreed to stipulate

5 to a continuance of the case management conference currently scheduled before

6 Magistrate Judge Laporte from May 20,2008 to July 29,2008.

7 In light of the foregoing, the parties hereby stipulate that the settlement

8 conference scheduled take place in this matter be continued from May 9, 2008 at 10:00
