SEAWIND GROUP HOLDINGS PTY LTD,
et al
CASE NO. C13-1759 SI
Stipulated Administrative
Motion and Request for Order
Changing the Date of Pretrial
Conference
16
17
In the above-captioned case, the Court heard oral argument on plaintiffs’ and
18
defendants’ summary judgment motions on December 19, 2015. Later that day, the Court
19
sua sponte changed the pretrial conference date to March 3, 2015, and the trial date to March
20
16, 2015.
21
Defendants’ counsel is presenting this motion to request a change in the date of the
22
pretrial conference, and plaintiffs’ counsel has courteously agreed to stipulate to such a
23
change. The reason for this request is the unavailability of that defense counsel. He is the
24
president of a large international lawyers organization, the International Network of
25
Boutique Law Firms (www.inblf.com), and he has a long-standing commitment to attend and
26
preside over a meeting of the organization in India (and has non-refundable hotel
27
reservations for the event). The first day of the meeting is February 27, and the last day is
28
March 2, 2015. Travel between India to San Francisco takes, at best, almost 24 hours.
Stipulated Motion for Order Changing Date of Pretrial Conference - No. C13-1759 SI

1
For this reason, further noting that the Court is unavailable March 4 to 6 and that
2
plaintiffs’ counsel is unavailable before March 12, defendants respectfully request that the
3
pretrial conference be rescheduled to March 12. If this is unacceptable to the Court, we ask
4
alternatively that the conference be rescheduled to February 23. However, in that event, we
5
further ask that counsel not be required to submit the pretrial materials that under the Court’s
6
Standing Order must be submitted 14 days before the pretrial conference, until February 17
7
(the present due date). With the summary judgment motions still unresolved, counsel remain
8
uncertain about the scope of the trial and would be hard-pressed to prepare and submit
9
pretrial materials by February 9. As is noted above, plaintiffs’ counsel has courteously
10
agreed to stipulate to these changes.
