The parties have met and conferred regarding discovery and mediation in this matter. The 

parties are still in the process of taking depositions, after which they intend to mediate the Ramirez 

case. The continuance of discovery cut-off dates would allow this to be accomplished. These 

extensions of time will not affect the pending pretrial or trial dates.

IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED by and between the parties hereto, through their respective 

attorneys of record that dates in the Order on Amended Stipulation to Continue Trial Date and 

Discovery Deadlines dated April 23, 2015, be modified as follows:

Non Expert Discovery Cutoff: October 16, 2015

Expert Disclosure: October 23, 2015

Rebuttal Expert Disclosure: November 13, 2015

Expert Discovery Cutoff: January 15, 2016

Non-dispositive Motion Filing Deadline: January 22, 2016

Dispositive Motion Filing Deadline: February 26, 2016

IT IS FURTHER STIPULATED that:

1. These modified dates do not relate to written discovery; and

2. All non-expert depositions shall be noticed by no later than August 29, 2015.
