STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER RE: EXTENSION OF AMENDED CONSENT DECREE

On January 30, 2019, United States Magistrate Judge Edmund F. Brennan granted 

final approval to an Amended Consent Decree (“ACD”) covering certain operations of the 

Yuba County Jail (the “Jail”). Since then, Rosen, Bien, Galvan & Grunfeld and the U.C. 

Davis School of Law King Hall Civil Rights Clinic (“Class Counsel”) have been monitoring 

compliance with the ACD, which includes review of documents and information the County 

of Yuba provides pursuant to the terms of the ACD. The ACD is set to expire January 31, 

2023. In anticipation of that, Class Counsel has served discovery requests. Defendants 

James Grant, et al. (the “County of Yuba”) have stated that they will object to these discovery 

requests. 

The County of Yuba and Class Counsel are actively discussing the possibility of 

dismissing some provisions of the ACD and extending others related to addressing mental 

health care and related issues at the Jail. In order to give the parties time to negotiate possible 

changes to the ACD, and avoid potential discovery disputes, the parties enter into the 

following stipulation: 

NOW THEREFORE, IT IS HERBY STIPULATED AND AGREED by and between 

the parties to this action, through their undersigned counsel, as follows: 

1. The current Amended Consent Decree approved by this Court on January 30,

2019 and which is set to expire on January 31, 2023 shall be extended until May 31, 2023, 

or until approval by the Court of the stipulated Second Amended Consent Decree, whichever 

occurs first. 

2. Up to January 1, 2023, the parties will negotiate and discuss a stipulation to

enter into a Second Amended Consent Decree focused on mental health care at the Jail. 

3. All discovery shall be stayed until January 1, 2023. If there is no agreement

on a Second Amended Consent Decree by January 1, 2023, Class Counsel may pursue 

discovery without the need to re-serve their PMK deposition notices. The County of Yuba 

preserves all rights to object to that discovery. 

IT IS SO STIPULATED.
