Plaintiff Jennifer Kerr (“Ms. Kerr”) and Defendants Delaware North Companies, Inc.,
DNC Parks and Resorts at Yosemite, Inc., and Delaware North Companies Parks and Resorts,

Inc. (“Defendants”), by and through their respective counsel of record, hereby stipulate to the

1.

Defendants have filed a Motion to Dismiss, which was originally set to be heard

on January 19, 2017;
SECOND STIPULATION TO CONTINUE HEARING DATE; ORDER

1

2.

Ms. Kerr disputed that Defendants’ removal of this action to federal court was

2

proper, and in order to resolve this jurisdictional issue prior to litigating the substance of this

3

matter, the parties agreed to seek to continue the hearing on Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss;

4

3.

To that end, the Parties filed a stipulation asking that the hearing on the Motion to

5

Dismiss be continued from January 19, 2017 to February 27, 2017, which was granted by the

6

Court;

Ms. Kerr has since filed a motion to remand, which Defendants opposed. That

issue is currently submitted to the Court for its determination;
5.

In order to avoid having to litigate the issue of Defendants’ motion to dismiss

before this Court decides Ms. Kerr’s remand motion, the Parties respectfully request a further
continuance of the hearing on Defendants’ motion to dismiss, to March 20, 2017 at 8:30 a.m., or
the first date after that on which the Court is available.

Date: February 2, 2017

It is so stipulated.
