Case No. CIV-S-13-1747 EFB 

Assigned to: Hon. Edmund F. Brennan 

STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER 

MODIFYING SCHEDULING ORDER DATED 

JUNE 18, 2014 

 The parties, by and through their respective counsel, stipulate as follows: 

 The parties have been engaged in active settlement negotiations leading up to and since a 

formal mediation with John Bates of JAMS in San Francisco in April 2014. While the parties continued 

negotiations, discovery has continued to progress though there remains a substantial amount of 

discovery that remains to be completed, particularly since (though not because) new counsel has 

substituted into the case for Plaintiff. Current counsel for the parties have agreed to a second 

mediation with William B. Smith, Esq. and are working to confirm a date in November. Concurrently, 

the parties continue to press forward with discovery, including plaintiff's recently served document 

demands and corporate and employee deposition notices to Daifuku America Corporation. Likewise, 

Daifuku America has noticed plaintiffs' depositions with a date to be set by mutual agreement.

 Because the parties wish to make an additional attempt to resolve the case, and allow sufficient 

time for remaining discovery, the parties request modest adjustments to the scheduling order, as 

indicated below. This includes a short continuance of the trial date to accommodate counsel for 

Daifuku America's calendar. The parties agree good cause supports this request and jointly request 

the Court approve the proposed order. 

 1. All discovery, except for expert disclosures, shall be completed by March 31, 2015. 

Motions to compel discovery must be heard no later than February 25, 2015. 

 2. The parties shall make their initial expert disclosure on or before January 16, 2015 and 

rebuttal disclosures by February 6, 2015. 

 3. All pretrial motions, except motions to compel discovery, shall be completed on or before 

May 20, 2015. 

 4. The final pretrial conference currently set on April 29, 2015 at 10:00 a.m. in Courtroom 

No. 8, is continued to August 19, 2015. Pretrial statements shall be filed in accordance with Local 

Rules 281 and 282 and the requirements herein. 

 5. The jury trial currently set to commence on June 30, 2015, at 9:00 a.m., in Courtroom 

No. 8 is continued to October 19, 2015.
