PARTIES’ JOINT REQUEST TO BE

EXEMPT FROM FORMAL ADR

PROCESS

Each of the undersigned certifies that he or she has read either the handbook entitled

“Dispute Resolution Procedures in the Northern District of California,” or the specified portions of

the ADR Unit’s Internet site <www.adr.cand.uscourts.gov>, discussed the available dispute

resolution options provided by the court and private entities, and considered whether this case

might benefit from any of them. Here, the parties agree that referral to a formal ADR process will

not be beneficial because this mandamus action is limited to plaintiff’s request that this Court

compel defendants to adjudicate the applications for adjustment of status. Given the substance of

the action and the lack of any potential middle ground, ADR will only serve to multiply the

proceedings and unnecessarily tax court resources.

Accordingly, pursuant to ADR L.R. 3-3(c), the parties request the case be removed from the

ADR Multi-Option Program and that they be excused from participating in the ADR phone
