IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED by and between plaintiff DOUGLAS BURNS and defendants the CITY OF REDWOOD CITY ("the City") and individual police officers, JAIME MATEO, DAVID GOUGH, RAMIRO PEREZ, STEPHEN SYSUM, and RICHARD HARRINGTON, through their designated counsel, that defendant officers be excused from attending the Settlement Conference scheduled on December 17, 2009, at 9:30 a.m., before the Honorable Magistrate Judge Laporte. The City requests that the officers be excused from personally attending this conference. Their absence will not impair the City's ability to discuss or settle the case, on the officers' behalf. Counsel for both parties believe that the individual officer defendants' absence will improve the likelihood of settlement in this action. IT IS SO STIPULATED.
