Case No. 2:15-cv-00081-GEB-CMK

Plaintiff CHRISTINA CULLEY (“Plaintiff”) and Defendants LINCARE INC. and 

ALPHA RESPIRATORY INC. (“Defendants”), by and through their respective counsel, hereby 

stipulate as follows:

WHEREAS, the Court initially set the following Class Certification schedule:

 Plaintiff’s deadline to file motion: September 28, 2015

 Defendant’s deadline to file opposition: November 2, 2015

 Plaintiff’s deadline to file reply: November 16, 2015

 Hearing re: Class Certification Motion: November 30, 2015

WHEREAS, while awaiting an order by the Magistrate Judge regarding a discovery 

dispute, the Court ordered a continuance, stipulated between the Parties, to the following Class 

Certification schedule:

 Plaintiff’s deadline to file motion: December 18, 2015

 Defendant’s deadline to file opposition: February 5, 2016

 Plaintiff’s deadline to file reply: February 26, 2016

 Hearing re: Class Certification Motion: March 21, 2016

WHEREAS, the order of the Magistrate Judge, issued November 2, 2015, orders the 

production of supplemental responses and responsive documents and provides 21 days for 

compliance, requiring the production of discovery relevant to Plaintiff’s Class Certification 

Motion on November 23, 2015;

WHEREAS, the order of the Magistrate Judge, issued November 2, 2015, denies without 

prejudice a request for further responses to Request for Production No. 30, explicitly granting 

Plaintiff authority to seek a further response after the initial response is supplemented. 

WHEREAS, the Parties have conferred and, based on the above and the availability of 

Counsel, believe that a continuance to the production ordered on November 2, 2015, as well as to 

the briefing schedule for the motion for class certification, is warranted to provide a sufficient 

amount of time for Defendant Alpha to produce the records and for Plaintiff to thereafter analyze 

the records and information;
