STIPULATION TO CONTINUE BRIEFING AND HEARING FOR CONDITIONAL

CERTIFICATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER

TO THE COURT, ALL PARTIES, AND THEIR ATTORNEYS OF RECORD:

Plaintiffs Rose Feaver, Myungshun Shim, and Artin Adamian (together “Plaintiffs”) and 

Defendants Kaiser Foundation Health Plan, Inc., and Kaiser Foundation Hospitals (together 

“Defendants”, and together with Plaintiffs the “Parties”), by and through their respective counsel 

of record hereby stipulate as follows:

WHEREAS, pursuant to the discourse on the record at the Case Management Conference 

that occurred in this Action on June 4, 2015, the Court Ordered (Docket No. 25) the following 

briefing and hearing schedule on Plaintiffs’ Motion for Conditional Certification:

Plaintiffs’ Motion: 9/10/2015

Defendants’ Opposition: 10/15/2015

Plaintiffs’ Reply: 10/29/2015

Hearing: 11/12/2015 at 1:30 p.m.

Further CMC: 11/12/2015 at 1:30 p.m.

Close of Discovery: 8/31/2015

WHEREAS, the Parties have served written discovery and Defendants have served 

notices of the depositions of the three named Plaintiffs in this Action pursuant to the Court’s 

Minute Order dated June 4, 2015;

WHEREAS, Plaintiff Feaver, during the week of August 2, 2015, experienced a family 

emergency, whereby Plaintiff Feaver’s son was in a catastrophic traffic accident likely resulting 

in a traumatic brain injury, among other injuries suffered;

WHEREAS, Plaintiff Feaver has left the State of California to be with her son in the 

State of Arizona, and does not intend to return to the State of California until the week of 

September 7, 2015;

WHEREAS, Plaintiffs have requested that Defendants continue their deposition of 

Plaintiff Feaver until such time as she has returned from caring for her injured son;

STIPULATION TO CONTINUE BRIEFING AND HEARING FOR CONDITIONAL

CERTIFICATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER

Defendants responses to Plaintiffs’ discovery requests and the Parties have been working in good 

faith to exchange adequate discovery in advance of the motion for conditional certification;

WHEREAS, the Parties have agreed that Defendants will produce documents Plaintiffs 

believe are necessary for Plaintiffs’ motion for conditional certification during the week of 

August 24, 2015;

WHEREAS, the Parties request an Order from the Court continuing the briefing 

deadlines for the motion for conditional certification, so that Defendants may complete their 

discovery while accommodating Plaintiff Feaver’s requested continuance of her deposition and 

Plaintiffs will have adequate time to review the documents produced before filing their motion. 

Plaintiff Feaver has in effect requested an additional 5 weeks from Defendants before submitting 

to her deposition, therefore, the Parties request that all dates be moved by 5 weeks. The resulting 

schedule would look as follows: 

Plaintiffs’ Motion: 10/15/2015

Defendants’ Opposition: 11/24/2015

Plaintiffs’ Reply: 12/8/2015

Hearing: 12/17/2015 at 1:30 p.m.

Close of Conditional Certification Discovery: 10/5/2015

In addition, given that the Court’s ruling on the Motion for Conditional Certification will 

greatly impact the remaining claims in this case, the Parties request that the CMC that was 

scheduled to take place at the same date and time as the hearing on Plaintiffs’ Motion for 

Conditional Certification be continued until 14 days after the Court issues an Order on Plaintiffs’ 

Motion. The Parties request that they submit a joint report suggesting a further schedule for this 

case within 5 days of the Court’s ruling on the Motion for Conditional Certification.
