Case No. 15-cv-04869-JSW 

ORDER TO PARTIES TO MEET AND 

CONFER AND FILE JOINT STATUS 

REPORT FOR THE PURPOSE OF 

DETERMINING RELATIONSHIP 

BETWEEN CASES 

Currently pending before this Court are two sets of related cases. 

First, Johnson v. Comcast of California/Colorado/Washington I., Inc., No. 10-cv-04147-

JSW, and Poole v. Comcast Corporation, No. 13-cv-03772-JSW, are related to each other. 

Johnson and Poole are stayed pending final resolution of Fayerweather v. Comcast Corporation 

and Comcast of Contra Costa, Inc., Superior Court of California in and for Contra Costa County 

No. C-08-01470. The parties in Johnson and Poole have been ordered to submit status reports to 

this court every 120 days, which are currently overdue. 

Second, Canaday v. Comcast Corp., 15-cv-04648-JSW; Ortega v. Comcast Corp., 

15-cv-04676-JSW; Williams v. Comcast Corp., 15-cv-04732-JSW; Valencia v. Comcast Corp., 

15-cv-04771-JSW; Coleman v. Comcast Corp., 15-cv-04782-JSW; Nelson v. Comcast Corp., 

15-cv-04793-JSW; DuBois v. Comcast Corp., 15-cv-04809-JSW; and Peters v. Comcast Corp., 

15-cv-04869-JSW, are related to each other. Plaintiffs in these cases were previously class 

members in the Fayerweather action. The Court has set a trial date in Canaday and Valencia. 

The Court has set a cut-off for fact discovery in Ortega, Williams, Coleman, Nelson, DuBois, and 

Peters that follows the trials in Canaday and Valencia. A further case management conference is 

scheduled in these eight related cases for September 9, 2016 at 11:00 a.m. 

The Court hereby ORDERS the parties in each of the above-captioned cases to meet and 

confer with each other regarding whether these ten cases should all be related to each other or 

otherwise coordinated. See N.D. Cal. Civil L.R. 1-5(n), 3-12. Additionally, the Court ORDERS 

the parties in each of the above-captioned cases to meet and confer regarding whether a stay of 

any or all of these cases remains, or is now, appropriate under Colorado River Water Conservation 

District v. United States, 424 U.S. 800, 818-19 (1976). Following the meet-and-confer process,
