Plaintiffs Craig Brownfield, C.A. Breadman, Carlos Garibay, Jimmy Herrera, Mike

and Defendant Flowers Baking Co. of California, LLC (“Defendant”) (collectively, the “Parties”), 

through their undersigned counsel, hereby respectfully submit the following Joint Stipulation and 

[Proposed] Order to Modify the Court’s December 16, 2015 Status (Pre-Trial Scheduling) Order 

(“Scheduling Order”). 

STIPULATION

 WHEREAS, the Court issued a Scheduling Order on December 16, 2015 requiring the 

Parties to complete all discovery by January 6, 2017, make expert witness disclosures by 

November 4, 2016, and provide supplemental disclosures and disclosures of any rebuttal experts by 

November 18, 2016; 

 WHEREAS, the Parties have conducted extensive written discovery, including 

propounding and responding to interrogatories, requests for admission and requests for production 

of documents; 

 WHEREAS, Defendant has noticed four of the Plaintiffs’ depositions and the Parties have 

been meeting and conferring to schedule the remaining three Plaintiffs’ depositions; 

 WHEREAS, the deposition of Plaintiff Craig Brownfield scheduled for September 28, 2016 

and the deposition of Plaintiff Carlos Garibay scheduled for October 5, 2016 must be rescheduled 

due to their unexpected unavailability; 

 WHEREAS, the Parties need two additional weeks to complete these depositions and thus 

request to extend by two weeks the deadlines for disclosing experts, disclosing rebuttal experts and 

the discovery cut-off, to accommodate the rescheduling of Mr. Brownfield’s and Mr. Garibay’s 

depositions, leaving sufficient time for experts to review the deposition transcripts; 

 WHEREAS, the proposed modifications do not affect the trial date or any hearing or filing 

deadline in the current schedule; and 

 WHEREAS, the parties agree that there is good cause based on the foregoing recitals to 

modify the scheduling order. 

NOW THEREFORE, the Parties agree and stipulate to the New Deadlines below:
