No. C 09-5890 WHA

ORDER DENYING

VACATION OF MEDIATION

COMPLETION DEADLINE

The deadline for the parties to complete mediation in this matter was July 8, 2010. This

deadline was set on April 1, 2010, at the initial case management conference. Despite having a

three month window to complete mediation, the parties failed to schedule mediation before the

deadline. According to the parties’ stipulation (Dkt. No. 40), this was due to their failure to

seek to schedule mediation until June 15, 2010. They now belatedly seek to vacate the July 8

mediation deadline which is long past. For lack of good cause shown, the request is DENIED.

Because the parties failed to meet the mediation completion deadline, the Court has no choice

but to extend it. The parties must complete mediation within 30 DAYS from the date of this

order.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: August 10, 2010. WILLIAM ALSUP
