1

I, M. Andrew Woodmansee, hereby declare as follows:

2

1.

I am a member of the bar of the State of California. I am a partner with the law

3

firm of Morrison & Foerster LLP, counsel for plaintiff Michael D. Almy. I have personal

4

knowledge of the facts set forth herein, and if called upon to do so, I could and would testify

5

competently thereto.

6

2.

On July 5, 2012, Plaintiff Almy filed a Motion for Partial Summary Judgment.

7

(ECF No. 70.) The briefing schedule for Plaintiff’s Motion for Partial Summary Judgment has

8

been continued twice and is currently stayed pending the outcome of Plaintiff’s Motion for a

9

Protective Order. (See ECF No. 74, 77, and 79.)

10

3.

On August 24, 2012, Plaintiff Almy filed a Motion for Protective Order under seal.

11

Defendants filed an opposition under seal on September 7, 2012, and Plaintiff filed a reply under

12

seal on September 14, 2012. The briefing schedule for Plaintiff’s Motion for Protective Order has

13

been continued twice and was most recently set to be heard by this Court on October 15, 2012, at

14

1:30 p.m. (ECF No. 86 and 89.) On October 10, 2012, the Court vacated the October 15 hearing

15

and the motion was submitted without oral argument. (ECF No. 90.)

16
17

4.

The proposed stay is agreed to by both sides and would continue pending the

completion of the parties’ attempts to achieve a resolution outside this matter.

18

I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct.

19

Executed on October 11, 2012, at San Diego, California.
