2. Case No. 3:13-cv-00341-JST

STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER TO CONTINUE THE TELEPHONIC CONFERENCE AND EXPERT DISCLOSURE

telephonic conference from June 26, 2015 until July 8, 2015, and the expert disclosure deadline 

from July 17, 2015 to July 31, 2015. 

On April 24, 2015, the Court scheduled a telephonic conference for June 26, 2015. (ECF 

No. 70.) On February 25, 2015, the Court set the deadline for expert disclosures for July 17, 

2015. (ECF 66.)

The parties have been working diligently to resolve a number of discovery disputes. They 

agree that, with additional time, they will likely resolve many of these disputes without involving 

the court. Additional time would also allow the parties to make headway on any issues that they 

are not able to fully resolve, which would make the telephonic conference more efficient and 

productive. The parties therefore ask that the telephonic conference be continued twelve days, 

until July 8, 2015. 

The parties also request that the court continue the deadline for expert disclosures until 

July 31, 2015 so that the Parties can resolve discovery disputes and take additional discovery. 

Pursuant to Local Rule 30-1, the parties have conferred extensively about scheduling the 

depositions of each Plaintiff since April. However, because both Plaintiffs have health issues and 

because of scheduling issues, neither has yet been able to appear for a deposition (Ms. Fertig, 

who is not a named Plaintiff, has appeared for deposition.) The parties recently confirmed Mr. 

Falkenberg’s deposition for July 9, 2015 via videoconference. Mr. Ingargiola’s deposition will 

likely not take place until the week of July 20, 2015. The parties agree that the expert disclosure 

deadline should be continued until after both Plaintiffs have been deposed and the parties ask 

that the expert disclosure deadline be continued two weeks until July 31, 2015.

Continuing the expert disclosure deadline would push back the expert rebuttal deadline 

until August 14, 2015, and the expert discovery cut-off until August 28, 2015. 

There have been two sets of continuances in this case since it was filed in January 2013. 

First, the Court continued the briefing schedule for Defendant’s Motion to Dismiss and Motion 

to Strike. (ECF No. 21.) Second, the Court several times continued the hearing on Defendant’s 

Motion to Dismiss and Motion to Strike until decisions were issued in two pending Court of 

Appeals cases. (ECF Nos. 35, 37, 39, 42.)

1. Continue the current June 26, 2015 telephonic conference date until July 8, 2015, or 

as soon a date thereafter as is convenient to the Court’s calendar;

2. Continue the current July 17, 2015 expert disclosure deadline until July 31, 2015, or 

as soon a date thereafter as is convenient to the Court’s calendar;
