Plaintiffs and Defendant Gateway Acceptance Company1 respectfully request that the

19
Court extend the deadline to hold an ADR session from April 25, 2012, for 30 to 45 days [e.g., to
20
June 1, 2012]. The parties have been negotiating an informal settlement of this
21
case, in good faith, over the last several weeks. And, counsel for both parties believe that they
22
may resolve this matter without the necessity and expense of a mediation. Consequently, they

Defendants Nevarez and Granato both filed bankruptcy petitions, and consequently, they are
not participating in this Stipulation or in the ADR session.
