The Plaintiff, by and through their attorney of record, and Defendants, by and through

their attorneys of record, hereby stipulate in accordance with Civ. L. Rule 6-2, to extend the

further status conference in this case, currently scheduled for February 19, 2010, to March 19,

2010, based on the following:

1. The basis asserted by Plaintiff for this Court's jurisdiction is under the Freedom of 

Case 3:08-cv-05408-SC Document 18 Filed 02/17/10 Page 1 of 3

Stipulation to Extend Further CMC

C 08-5408 SC 2

Information Act ("FOIA"), 5 U.S.C. § 552(a)(4)(B) and 28 U.S.C. § 1331.

2. On March 20, 2009, the Court scheduled a further status conference for December 4,

2009.

3. Due to the attorney for the Defendants’ unavailability on that day, the parties asked

that the further status conference be reset to February 19, 2010. 

4. Defendants’ final FOIA disclosures were sent to Plaintiff on February 5, 2010, and 

Plaintiff just received them on February 12, 2010. 

5. In order to give Plaintiff a chance to review the final disclosures and determine if an

appeal of the redactions and the completeness of the production is necessary, and for the parties

to attempt to narrow the scope of the litigation, and find dates for cross-motions for summary

judgment to propose to the Court, the parties respectfully ask for a 30-day extension of time for

the further case management conference, to March 19, 2010.

6. There has been only one previous joint extension request and this request is not for the

purposes of delay.
