The Parties, Plaintiff JOHN DOE, by and through his Guardian ad Litem, Herb Thomas,
27
and Defendant MT. DIABLO UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT, hereby file this Joint Stipulation
28
for Expedited Hearing of Petition to Compromise Pending Action on the following grounds.
JOINT STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER FOR EXPEDITED HEARING OF PLAINTIFF'S
PETITION TO COMPROMISE PENDING ACTION
Case No. C-14-02167 HSG
1
This matter was settled by a compromised settlement by all parties on June 22, 2015. As
2
the Plaintiff is an incapacitated person, Court approval is sought in order to approve this
3
settlement including an order to allow counsel to establish a Special Needs Trust on behalf of
4
John Doe.
5
This matter involves a Guardian ad Litem in California, and co-counsel for the Plaintiff
6
has their offices in Florida and New York, hence time has been a factor in getting all paperwork
7
filed with this Court. At the beginning of the gathering and exchange of settlement documents,
8
the Court's calendar had availability for August 20, 2015 for the hearing on Plaintiffs Petition
9
for Compromise of Pending Action ("Petition"). When Plaintiffs counsel filed the Petition on
10
Monday, August 3, 2015, the Court no longer had available the date of August 20, 2015.
11
Plaintiff then selected September 10, 2015 for the hearing. Due to a minor filing issue, the
12
Petition filed on August 3 was rejected and the hearing date of September 10, 2015 was no
13
longer available to the parties. Upon Plaintiffs refiling of the Petition, the September 10, 2015
14
date was no longer available and the soonest available date Plaintiff could select for the hearing
15
was October 1, 2015.
16
Plaintiffs counsel has contacted Defendant Mt. Diablo Unified School District's counsel,
17
Timothy Murphy, who has advised he has no objection to the entry of this stipulation, and joins
18
Plaintiff in this stipulation due to the settlement being effectuated on June 22, 2015.
19
The parties respectfully request that this Honorable Court shorten the time in which the
20
hearing is to take place and allow for the September 10,2015 hearing to take place at 2:00
21
p.m., as counsel for each of the parties and the Guardian ad Litem are available to attend the
22
hearing at this date and time.
23
24
The parties further respectfully request that the hearing on the Petition be held
confidentially in a closed session since the subject matter is confidential and concerns privileged
