On October 24, 2011, a case management conference was scheduled to occur at

12 1:30 p.m. in Courtroom 12, 19th Floor of the U.S. District Courthouse in San Francisco. At
13 that meeting, counsel for the Plaintiff failed to appear. Due to counsel’s failure to appear, the
14 case management conference had to be continued. Furthermore, counsel for Defendant
15 Wells Fargo Bank was forced to wait, following a morning hearing at the courthouse, until
16 after 2:00 p.m. in anticipation of appearing at the case management conference, only to be
17 told the conference would have to be continued due to Plaintiff’s counsel’s failure to appear.
