 Case No. 2:14-cv-00360-GEB-AC 

2

WORLDWIDE, INC. (“Defendants”) – Plaintiffs and Defendants together the “Parties” -- hereby 

stipulate and request that the deadline to complete discovery in this matter be continued to 

December 18, 2015. The Parties do so based on the following good cause: 

1. The subject property is Hilton Sacramento Arden West, a large hotel located in 

Sacramento, California (the “Hotel”). 

2. Pursuant to Oliver v. Ralphs Grocery Co., 654 F.3d 903 (9th Cir. 2011), Plaintiffs 

amended their Complaint on February 11, 2015, to reflect all alleged access 

barriers at the Hotel (Docket No. 38), and Defendants answered the Amended 

Complaint on February 25, 2015 (Docket Nos. 39 and 40). 

3. The Parties have actively met and exchanged relevant information to evaluate 

settlement options since the Parties participated in a Federal Rule of Civil 

Procedure (“Fed.R.Civ.P.”) 34 site inspection at the Hotel on August 19, 2014. 

The Parties’ access consultants most recently met at the Hotel on September 8, 

2015 to discuss barrier removal options. They intend to conduct a third site 

inspection by the end of September to conclude their determinations of the 

Parties’ respective positions regarding injunctive relief. 

4. Depositions of Defendants have been tentatively set for October 7-9, 2015. 

5. A settlement conference has been scheduled with Magistrate Judge Allison Claire 

on February 25, 2016. 

6. The current deadline to complete discovery in this matter is October 28, 2015, per 

the Court’s July 31, 2015 Order (Docket No. 42). 

IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED by and among all parties that the deadline to complete 

discovery in this matter be continued until December 18, 2015 so that the Parties can make their 

best efforts to settle this case without unnecessary discovery and litigation, but still be allowed 

enough time to complete discovery if settlement efforts are not successful.
