All parties to this action stipulate and agree, by and through their respective counsel, as
follows:
1.

The parties attended a mediation with retired Magistrate Judge James Larson on

May 21, 2013. Judge Larson is the process of issuing the parties a written mediator’s proposal
that the parties will be evaluating. The parties anticipate that further settlement discussions are
necessary.
2.

Lead trial counsel for the Plaintiffs is unavailable for all of next week, May 27th

through May 31st, for a family celebration and Plaintiffs will not be in a position to respond to the
mediator’s proposal likely before the first week of June 2013.
3.

The parties wish to continue to pre-trial conference for a brief period of time (two

weeks) to allow the parties sufficient time to fully evaluate the mediator’s proposal, without
incurring the costs and fees for extensive pretrial preparation which would be moot if all parties
accept the mediator’s proposal. It would be an ineffective waste of party resources, and judicial
time and resources, to undergo a Pre-Trial Conference and have the parties prepare all pre-trial
documents per Court orders if the parties can reach a settlement.
4.

Therefore, the parties seek the Court’s approval to continue the Pre-Trial

Conference, currently set for June 24, 2013, for two weeks to July 8, 2013, at the Court’s
convenience and availability, and the deadlines and requirements per the prior Pretrial Orders of
the Court would correspond to the new Pre-trial Conference date.
5.

The trial date of August 6, 2013, will not be affected by this brief continuance.

6.

The parties propose the following pre-trial schedule:
