PLATINUM TOO, LLC, BRUCE MABEY, and

WILLIAM TEITELBAUM,

Defendants.

CASE NUMBER: C 07 5551 WHA

STIPULATION TO SHORTEN TIME FOR

SETTING AND HEARING OF THE

MOTION OF DEFENDANT, WILLIAM

TEITELBAUM, TO SET ASIDE DEFAULT

AND ORDER THEREON

Judge: Hon. William Alsup

Courtroom: 9 (19th Floor)

Complaint Filed: October 31, 2007

Trial Date: January 5, 2009

Plaintiff, Lay Siok Lin, by and through her attorney, Matthew Metz, and Defendant,

William Teitelbaum, by and through his attorneys, Steven Levy and Jeffrey Forster, stipulate as

follows and request the Court to enter an order in accordance with this stipulation.

 Defendant, William Teitelbaum, intends to bring a motion to set aside the default entered

against him on or about January 24, 2008 primarily on grounds of invalid service. The motion

would ordinarily require at least 35 days from the time of filing to the time of hearing.

Plaintiff, Lay Siok Lin, has previously filed an Application for Default Judgment

presently set for April 3, 2008.

Matthew Metz and Steven Levy counsel conferred by phone on March 3, 2008 and agreed

Case Number: C 07 5551 WHA

Stipulation to Shorten Time for Setting and Hearing of the Motion of 

Defendant, William Teitelbaum, to Set Aside Default and Order Thereon Page 2 of 3

the motion to vacate should be heard prior to the Application for Default Judgment.

Matthew Metz and Steven Levy agreed to a hearing date of April 3, 2008 for the Motion

of Defendant, William Teitelbaum, to Set Aside Default for the following reasons: (1) to allow

for hearing of the Motion to Set Aside Default prior to hearing of the Application for Default

Judgment; (2) to allow plaintiff the greatest possible time to respond to the motion to vacate; (3)

and to avoid rescheduling Application for Default Judgment.

Matthew Metz and Steven Levy also agreed to the following briefing schedule:

1. The motion and supporting papers shall be e-filed on or before March 4, 2008;

2. Plaintiff, Lay Siok Lin, shall file any opposition on or before March 19, 2008;

3. Reply papers, if any, shall be filed on or before March 26, 2008;

The only prior time modifications in this case were: (1) a stipulation/order that gave

defendants, Bruce Mabey and Platinum Too, LLC, an extension to January 14, 2008 to respond

to the Complaint, and (2) an expedited motion to withdraw by counsel for Platinum Too, LLC.

The approval of this stipulation does not appear as though it would negatively impact any

presently scheduled dates in this case.

Based on the agreement of counsel and for the reasons stated, it is requested that the

Court enter an order shortening time for the Motion of Defendant, William Teitelbaum, to Set

Aside Default and allow the motion to be heard April 3, 2008 with the agreed briefing schedule.

By signature below, it is so stipulated and counsel declare that the contents of this

stipulation are true and correct to the best of their knowledge..
