STIPULATION TO AMEND
SCHEDULING ORDER;
ORDER THEREON
18
19
Plaintiff, Lawrence Green (“Plaintiff”), and Defendants, Ashlan Park Center, LLC, a
20
Delaware limited liability company; and Koroosh Zaghi dba Arby’s #5524 (“Defendants,” and
21
together with Plaintiff, “the Parties”), together request that the Court amend the Scheduling
22
Order as follows:
23
24
WHEREAS, on March 24, 2015, the Court issued a Scheduling Order (Dkt. 20)
(“Scheduling Order”), which sets a deadline to amend the pleadings of May 22, 2015;
25
WHEREAS, on April 1, 2015, Plaintiff properly noticed a site inspection of the subject
26
Arby’s #5524 (“the Facility”) to take place on May 4, 2015, following attempts to coordinate
27
the date of the inspection with Defendants;
28
WHEREAS, on April 30, 2015 at approximately 5:00 p.m., Plaintiff was served via
STIPULATION TO AMEND SCHEDULING ORDER; [PROPOSED] ORDER
1
1
email with an objection by the named tenant defendant, Koroosh Zaghi, on the basis that he
2
was not the tenant at this location, and had no authority to permit the inspection because he
3
does not own or operate the Facility. Instead, he advised that Little Rock Management, Inc. (of
4
which he is a principal) is the tenant in control of the Facility. This was the first time that
5
Plaintiff was advised that this entity was the proper tenant and operator of the Facility;
6
7
WHEREAS, Plaintiff advised the landlord defendant, Ashlan Park Center, LLC, that it
was obligated to have ensured with the tenant that the site inspection would go forward;
8
WHEREAS, Ashlan Park Center, LLC allowed the inspection to go forward as to the
9
common areas of the shopping center and notified the principal of Little Rock Management,
10
Koroosh Zaghi, on May 1, 2015 that an inspection was being requested of the interior of
11
Arby’s on May 4, 2015. Ashlan Park Center, LLC did not believe that it had authority to allow
12
an interior inspection of Arby’s absent the consent of the tenant but also indicated that it had no
13
objection;
14
WHEREAS, on May 4, 2015, an inspection was conducted by Plaintiff’s consultant of
15
the exterior of the Facility, but he was denied access to the interior by Little Rock
16
Management, Inc.’s onsite management staff;
17
WHEREAS, Defendant Koroosh Zaghi asserts that as he is not the tenant or operator
18
of the Facility and cannot provide consent to an inspection of the property, therefore no
19
inspection can take place until Little Rock Management, Inc. is named;
20
WHEREAS, Plaintiff contends he is unable to amend his complaint to include
21
additional barriers to his full and equal access which may exist at the Facility, as Plaintiff
22
asserts is urged and required by the Ninth Circuit (Chapman v. Pier 1 Imports (U.S.) Inc., 631
23
F.3d 939, 944 (9th Cir. 2011); Oliver v. Ralphs Grocery Co., 654 F.3d 903, 909 (9th Cir.
24
2011)), until his consultant is permitted to inspect the interior of the Facility;
25
WHEREAS, counsel for Defendants have indicated that they will stipulate to the filing
26
of an amended complaint which will solely add the newly discovered business owner, after
27
which Plaintiff will need time to effect service of the amended complaint on the new
28
defendant, re-notice and conduct his site inspection, and thereafter await his consultant’s report
STIPULATION TO AMEND SCHEDULING ORDER; [PROPOSED] ORDER
2
1
and amend his complaint to add any additional barriers identified during the inspection of the
2
Facility;
3
4
WHEREAS, Ashlan Park Center, LLC contends that all readily achievable charges to
the common area parking have been completed. Plaintiff disagrees with this contention.
5
