Ishii Courtroom 2, Floor 8 STIPULATION The parties, by their respective counsel, hereby submit this Stipulation and state as follows: 27 28 1 STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER DM1\2945858.1 58321/00020-1829648.v1 CASE NO. 1:10-CV-01603-OWW-SMS 1 1. After conducting substantial written discovery to date, the parties have each/all 2 agreed to seek to make the necessary arrangements to schedule a mediation to attempt resolution of 3 the claims raised in this proceeding. 4 2. The parties believe that a successful mediation is more probable if, during and before 5 the time the mediation takes place, all parties can be spared all further fact and expert discovery 6 expenses, including depositions. 7 3. Moreover, this action has been recently reassigned to Chief U.S. District Court Judge 8 Anthony W. Ishii and the parties recognize that the discovery cut-off dates, pre-trial conference and 9 trial dates previously set may not be realistic due to the Court’s existing calendar. 10 4. For these reasons, and, because the parties do not anticipate being able to conduct a 11 mediation until December the parties agree and request this Court to vacate all dates set in the 12 Court’s previous “SCHEDULING CONFERENCE ORDER” dated May 23, 2011 (Docket #49). 13 The parties request that the Court set a new Scheduling Conference, if necessary, after completion of 14 the mediation if the case is not settled. 15 16 17 Dated: November 15, 2011 Dated: November 15, 2011 IKON OFFICE SOLUTIONS, INC.
