CASE NO. 1:06-CV-00381-LJO-SMS STIPULATION AND

[PROPOSED] ORDER

The parties, by and through their respective counsel of record, hereby stipulate and

agree as follows and respectfully request that the Court approve and give effect to their

stipulation:

WHEREAS, at the February 13, 2007 Scheduling Conference, the Court set a summary

judgment briefing schedule.

WHEREAS on May 24, 2007, pursuant to the parties’ stipulation, the Court continued

the summary judgment schedule by ninety days, pursuant to which plaintiff John Deere

Insurance Company n/k/a Sentry Select Insurance Company (“Plaintiff”) must file its summary

judgment motion by September 6, 2007 and Universal Underwriters Insurance Company

(“Universal”) must file its cross-motion for summary judgment by September 19, 2007; 

WHEREAS, Universal served requests for production on Plaintiff in February 2007 and

desires to obtain and review Plaintiff’s documents before the parties’ summary judgment

motions are filed;

WHEREAS, Plaintiff’s counsel has been unable to produce documents responsive to

Universal’s requests because complications have arisen in obtaining those documents from

other counsel, because of a trial in another matter that had been scheduled for August 2007 and

because of continuing medical issues affecting one of his immediate family members;

WHEREAS, Plaintiff’s counsel requested that Universal agree to a further continuance

of the summary judgment filing dates, and Universal agreed not to oppose such a request.

IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED AND AGREED that the summary judgment briefing

schedule shall be continued by ninety (90) days. Specifically, the parties propose that the Court

adopt the following briefing schedule:

Plaintiff files its summary judgment motion: December 4, 2007

Universal files its opposition and cross-motion: December 18, 2007

Plaintiff files its opposition and reply: January 8, 2008

Universal files its reply: January 15, 2008
