STIPULATION

The First Amended Cross-Claim of Cross-Claimants Troy Steele and Steele Insurance 

Agency, Inc. (“Cross-Claimants”) was filed on June 3, 2014;

On June 24, 2014, Cross-Defendants Farmers Insurance Exchange, Truck Insurance 

Exchange, Fire Insurance Exchange, Mid-Century Insurance Company and Farmers New 

World Life Insurance Company (“Cross-Defendants”) (“Cross-Claimants” and “CrossDefendants” are, respectively, “the Parties”) filed their SPECIAL MOTION TO STRIKE 

PURSUANT TO CCP 425.16 and MOTION TO DISMISS, setting the hearing of those 

motions both for July 24, 2014 at 2:00 p.m.;

Michael A.S. Newman, the counsel for Cross-Defendants with primary responsibility 

for drafting the above motions and the reply briefs for such motions, is set to go on a family 

vacation starting on July 12, 2014 and returning on July 21, 2014;

As Cross-Claimants’ oppositions to the instant motions are due on July 10, 2014, and 

as Cross-Defendants’ replies are due on July 17, 2014, the drafting of the reply briefs will 

fall largely during the period when Mr. Newman will be on vacation;

Therefore, the Parties stipulate to move the hearing dates for both motions to August 

5, 2014. Correspondingly, the parties stipulate to move the opposition and reply dates to the 

times such oppositions and replies would have been due had the motion initially been set for 

hearing on August 5, 2014 (i.e., July 24 for oppositions and July 31 for replies). 

IT IS SO STIPULATED.
