COME NOW Plaintiff, Randall Thill, and Defendant, Edward D. Jones & Co., L.P. 

(“Edward Jones”), by and through their undersigned attorneys, and jointly request to continue the 

Case Management Conference presently set for March 30, 2007 to April 30, 2007. In support of 

this request, the Parties state as follows: 

1. The Parties participated in a meaningful two-day mediation session with Hunter 

Hughes on March 5 and 6, 2007. 

2. Since that time, the Parties have been engaging in ongoing settlement negotiations, 

including the exchange of counter-proposals this week through Mr. Hughes. In addition to 

negotiating the monetary amount of the settlement, there are numerous attendant details that must 

be resolved prior to resolution of both this case and related litigation, pending in the United States 

District Court, for the Western District of Pennsylvania. Such details, which the parties are in the 

process of working through, include such items as the settlement class definitions, scope of the 

release, varying statutes of limitations, allocation of the settlement amount, and settlement 

procedure, to identify a few. Moreover, the Parties are considering scheduling a second formal 

mediation to work through these additional terms and details. 

3. In order to allow sufficient time for the parties to consider and discuss all details 

attendant to settlement, the Parties jointly request that the Court continue the scheduling 

conference, presently set for March 30, 2007, for an additional thirty (30) days, up to and 

including April 30, 2007 to allow the Parties to fully focus on resolving this matter so that they 

may provide a meaningful report to this Court at the scheduling conference.
