Consequently, the Parties are not in a position to meaningfully evaluate the case for 

settlement purposes at this time. No trial date gas been set in this matter, and the 

Parties are still attempting to discover the nature and extent of Plaintiff’s alleged 

injuries. The Parties have agreed to mediate this case before Jerry Spolter of JAMS. 

The mediation is scheduled for August 22, 2006. 

Based on the foregoing, the Parties hereby stipulate and respectfully 

request that they be relieved from participation in a settlement conference before this 

Court. 

IT IS SO STIPULATED.
