STIPULATION REGARDING MANDATORY SETTLEMENT CONFERENCE - Case No. C09-05922-WHA

1

This matter is set for trial on March 5, 2012.

2

On October 28, 2011, the parties participated in mediation before JAMS

3

mediator Jerry Spolter. The Plaintiff attended the mediation in person as did

4

representatives for both Defendants. The defense representatives each had full

5

settlement authority. The parties negotiated in good faith, but were unable to reach a

6

settlement at the mediation. However, they have continued settlement discussions by

7

telephone with the assistance of the mediator. At this point, counsel for the parties do

8

not believe that they can make any additional progress in discussing settlement with the

9

mediator or among themselves.

10

The parties, by and through their counsel of record, therefore stipulate that

11

the Court may refer this matter to an available magistrate judge for a mandatory

12

settlement conference. The parties ask that the Court refer the matter to Magistrate

13

Judge Laporte or Magistrate Judge James.
Respectfully Submitted,
