 MOTION AND STIPULATION TO CONTINUE CASE MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE No.C05-3107 JSW 2

It is likely the case management deadlines set by this Court will come to pass before the

Clerk of the MDL Panel acts.

In addition, although all Defendants have been served, to date, an Answer is still pending

from Defendant GENERAL DYNAMICS CORPORATION.

Due to the pending action by the Clerk of the MDL Panel, and the time needed by the

panel to consider the notices and motion of Defendant TODD SHIPYARDS CORPORATION,

the following parties hereby STIPULATE to and respectfully request that the dates set forth in

the Order Setting Initial Case Management Conference filed August 1, 2005 (Document 2), 

including the deadline to file the Joint Case Management Statement on October 14, 2005 and the 

Case Management Conference currently set for hearing on November 4, 2005, be continued

pending the outcome of the MDL Panel’s decision on the merits of the transfer.
