AFL/CIO (“Defendant”), herein referred to collectively as the “Parties,” hereby stipulate, by and

5

through their respective attorneys of record, as follows:

6

9

WHEREAS, a case management conference was originally scheduled in this matter for
September 18, 2014 at 2:00 p.m.;
WHEREAS, on September 17, 2014, the Court issued an order on the parties’ stipulation
relating Letbetter, et al. v. Local 514, Transport Workers Union of America, et al., Case No.

10

3:14-cv-04075-VC (N.D. Cal.) (the “Letbetter Action”) to this case, and rescheduled the

11

September 18 case management conference to September 30, 2014 at 10:00 a.m. to coincide with

12

an initial case management conference in Letbetter set for the same date and time;

13

WHEREAS, Stephen Berzon, lead counsel for Defendant TWU, is traveling for prior

14

work commitments on September 30, 2014 and therefore not available to attend the case

15

management conferences currently set for that day;

16

WHEREAS, due to various scheduling conflicts among counsel for TWU, counsel for

17

Demetris Plaintiffs, counsel for Letbetter Plaintiffs, and counsel for defendant Local 514 in the

18

Letbetter Action, the next Tuesday on which all counsel are available is November 4, 2014; and

19

WHEREAS, no other deadlines have yet been set in either the above-captioned matter or

20

in Letbetter, and therefore rescheduling the September 30, 2014 case management conference in

21

both cases will not affect any other case scheduling deadlines;

22

Hence, pursuant to Civil Local Rule 6-2, the Parties stipulate that the case management

23

conferences currently set for September 30, 2014 in the above-captioned matter and in the

24

related Letbetter Action shall be rescheduled for November 4, 2014 at 10:00 a.m., provided that

25

date is convenient for the Court.

Case No. 3:13-CV-05566-VC

1

DECLARATION OF CONNIE K. CHAN IN SUPPORT OF STIPULATION

2

I, Connie K. Chan, declare as follows:

3

1.

I am a member in good standing of the bar of the State of California and am

4

counsel for Defendant TWU in the above-captioned case. I am also counsel for Defendant TWU

5

in the related case Letbetter, et al. v. Local 514, Transport Workers Union of America, et al.,

6

Case No. 3:14-cv-04075-VC (N.D. Cal.) (the “Letbetter Action”). I make this declaration in

7

support of the Parties’ stipulated request to move the case management conference currently set

8

for September 30, 2014. The facts set forth in this declaration I know to be true of my own

9

personal knowledge, except where such facts are stated to be based on information and belief,

10
11

and those facts I believe to be true.
2.

On September 17, 2014, the Court issued an order on the parties’ stipulation

12

relating the Letbetter Action to the Demetris Action, and set an initial case management

13

conference in the Letbetter Action for September 30, 2014, at 10:00 a.m. That same day, the

14

Court reset the case management conference in the Demetris Action originally scheduled for

15

September 18, 2014 at 2:00 p.m. to September 30, 2014, at 10:00 a.m.

16

3.

Due to previously scheduled work commitments, Stephen Berzon, lead counsel

17

for TWU in both this action and the related Letbetter Action, will be traveling on September 30,

18

2014 and therefore is not able to attend the case management conferences currently scheduled for

19

that day.

20

4.

I informed counsel for Demetris plaintiffs, counsel for Letbetter plaintiffs, and

21

counsel for defendant Local 514 in the Letbetter Action of Mr. Berzon’s scheduling conflict and

22

requested that they stipulate to continue the case management conferences to a mutually

23

agreeable date.

24
25
26

5.

Upon information and belief, due to counsel’s various scheduling conflicts, the

next Tuesday on which all counsel are available is November 4, 2014.
6.

No other deadlines have yet been set in either matter, and therefore rescheduling

27

the September 30, 2014 case management conference in both cases will not affect any other case

28

scheduling deadlines.
