The following is intended to address the information required by Civil Local Rule 16-9 and
the Standing Order to be included in Joint Case Management statements:

3

Plaintiff Conquista Consultoria e Assessoria Empresarial, Ltda. (“Conquista”) brought this

4

action against defendants Iguacu, Inc. (“Iguacu”), GoldenGate Solutions, Inc. (“GoldenGate”), and

5

Ms. Shobha Seturam to recover a percentage of the finder’s fees recovered by Iguacu in a separate

6

action pending in this court, Iguacu v. Cabrera, case no. CV-09-00380-RS. Jurisdiction is based on

7

28 U.S.C. § 1332. The complaint prayed for damages in an amount of not less than $4 million.

8

Conquista also filed a certificate of interested persons or entities. (Docket #2.)

9

Iguacu and Ms. Seturam filed an answer denying liability and asserting various affirmative

10

defenses. (Docket #19.) GoldenGate has been served with the summons and complaint (Docket

11

#10), but it is a suspended corporation and has not yet appeared in this action.

12
13
14
15

The Court related Iguacu v. Cabrera to this case by order dated February 24, 2011. (Docket
#14.)
This action has been stayed, pending resolution of Iguacu v. Cabrera or further order of this
Court, by stipulation and order entered on March 22, 2011. (Docket #22.)

16

Iguacu v. Cabrera is still pending. Trial has been set for September 23, 2013.

17

Since this case was stayed, the parties in this case have taken no other actions relating to this

18

litigation, except the filing of stipulations asking the Court to continue scheduled standby case

19

management conferences. The parties agree that this case should continue to be stayed in

20

accordance with the order of March 22, 2011. The parties further agree that the CMC currently

21

scheduled for April 11, 2013 be continued for at least six months.
