RE MOTION FOR SUMMARY

JUDGMENT

TRIAL: March 3, 2008

Plaintiff Ian Hunter, as the Chair of the Board of Trustees of

Unemployment Services Trust (“UST”), and defendant Ohio Indemnity Company

(“OIC”), stipulate to an order amending the summary-judgment-motion scheduling order

as follows:

1. The last day for plaintiff to file and serve its opposition to

defendant’s motion for summary judgment should be changed from Tuesday, November

6, 2007, to Thursday, November 8, 2007. The last day for defendant to file and serve its

reply in support of that motion for summary judgment should be changed from Tuesday,

November 13, 2007, to Friday, November 16, 2007.

2. The Court denied this request earlier without prejudice to the parties’

making a sufficient showing of good cause. There is good cause for these brief

extensions for the following reasons: Plaintiff’s counsel had planned to attend his

cousin’s wedding in Albuquerque, New Mexico, on Saturday, November 4, 2007. He and

his wife are confirmed to fly out Friday evening and to return on Sunday, November 5,

2007. Plaintiff’s counsel had planned not to work on the opposing papers over the weekend. If the current schedule is not continued, they may have to cancel the visit in order to

make sure the opposition is finished under the Court’s deadline.

3. In addition, plaintiff was served with the moving papers on Monday,

October 22, 2007. At that time, no briefing schedule had been set. The Court set a

briefing schedule that afternoon. Based on the travel plans and the brief time for the

opposition under the briefing schedule, and in light of the indication in the order that the

briefing schedule was subject to change by stipulation, plaintiff requested, and defendant

agreed, to stipulate to extend the briefing schedule to November 8 (an extra two days) for

the opposition papers, and November 16 for the reply (an extra day). Plaintiff is also

arranging for declarations to be submitted by witnesses who reside in Ohio and Southern

California. There may be logistical problems in finalizing the declarations under the

current schedule. Anticipating that request for a two-day extension would be granted

based on the stipulation, plaintiff’s counsel worked on other business much of last week

(including expert disclosures in this case, a discovery motion and related discovery issues

in a case pending in Solano County Superior Court involving a dispute between a hospital

system and a health plan over emergency billing, and a fee-dispute issue in a case in

arbitration). Plaintiff anticipates that ECF filing of the opposing papers may itself be

complicated and time-consuming. The extra two days will make it easier to finalize and

file the papers. Defendant requests the additional day to prepare its reply papers and to

respond to any new evidence or issues presented. Given that the hearing is scheduled for

December 7, the Court and its staff will have three weeks to consider the papers before

the currently-scheduled hearing date.
