NOTICE OF MOTION AND CONSENT MOTION TO ENLARGE TIME AND EXTEND DATES DUE TO 

SETTLEMENT DISCUSSIONS; [PROPOSED] ORDER

Winston & Strawn LLP 

101 California Street 

San Francisco, CA 94111-5894 

MEMORANDUM OF POINTS AND AUTHORITIES 

 Plaintiff Dioptics Medical Products, Inc. (“Dioptics”) hereby submits this memorandum of 

points and authorities in support of its motion to change time pursuant to Civil Local Rule 6-2. As 

set forth in the accompanying declaration of Jennifer A. Golinveaux, Dioptics seeks the extensions 

of time detailed below because the parties to this action have reached a settlement in principle and 

need additional time to formalize the settlement and execute settlement documents. Defendant BEI 

consents to this motion. The parties have not filed a joint stipulation because BEI’s counsel, Mr. 

Benjamin B. Reed, is not admitted to practice law in the State of California and is not admitted pro

hac vice in this proceeding. The Court has previously granted seven motions to extend time in this 

case.

 Dioptics respectfully requests that the Court grant its motion to extend the dates as follows: 

Event Current Deadline Proposed Deadline

Last day for BEI to answer complaint; December 1, 2006 January 2, 2006 

Last day to: December 1, 2006 January 2, 2006 

 - meet and confer re initial disclosures, 

early settlement, ADR process selection, and discovery plan;

 - file ADR Certification or Notice of Need for ADR 

Phone Conference. 

 Accordingly, Dipotics respectfully requests that the Court grant its motion to change time, 

without the need for oral argument, as BEI consents to this motion. 

Dated: December 1, 2006 WINSTON & STRAWN, LLP
