Waiver of service of summons by all unserved defendants. Defendants CRAIG 7 TIFFE and ERIC REBOLI waive service of summons pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure, 8 Rule 4(d), as if the request for waiver were mailed on June 18, 2015, such that the due date for a 9 response to the Complaint on behalf of each of them is due on August 17, 2015. 10 2. Extension of time to respond to Complaint for the previously served defendants, to 11 August 17, 2015. Under Northern District Civil Local Rule No. 6-1, the time to file a response to the 12 Complaint on behalf of defendants CITY AND COUNTY OF SAN FRANCISCO (also sued as the 13 SAN FRANCISCO POLICE DEPARTMENT) and GREG SUHR is extended to and including August 14 17, 2015. That is the same date that a response is due from the remaining defendants (CRAIG TIFFE 15 and ERIC REBOLI), who have agreed to waive service of summons. This extension will not alter any 16 event or deadline already fixed by Court order and it does not involve papers required to be filed or 17 lodged with the Court other than an initial response to the Complaint; however, as discussed below, 18 the parties have made a stipulated request to continue the case management conference for reasons that 19 include permitting the served defendants, as well as the defendants who have agreed to waive service 20 of summons, sufficient time to respond to the Complaint. 21 3. Continuance of initial case management conference to September 8, 2015, at 2:00 22 p.m. The current initial case management conference is set for July 21, 2015. The parties request an 23 order continuing the initial case management conference to Tuesday September 8, 2015, at 2:00 p.m., 24 and likewise continuing the pre-case management conference deadlines based on the new case 25 management conference date. Good cause exists for this extension as follows: (1) defense counsel 26 will be on a pre-planned, prepaid vacation on the currently set date of July 21; and further, (2) the 27 requested extension will allow all parties to appear in this action and will allow counsel sufficient 28 Stip Re Time to Respond to Complaint & Cont.

There have been no previous requests for a continuance. 3 The parties respectfully request that the above stipulation be entered as the Court’s Order. 4 IT IS SO STIPULATED. 5 Dated: June 23, 2015 6 DENNIS J.

Keith declare as follows: 25 1.

Good cause for continuance of case management conference. I have a pre-planned, 4 prepaid vacation on the currently scheduled date of July 21. This vacation was scheduled and paid for 5 before any defendants were served. In addition, an extension is sought until September 8, 2015 to 6 allow all parties to appear in this action and to allow counsel sufficient time to meet and confer on the 7 matters specified by the Federal Rules, Local Rules, and Standing Orders. 8 3. Previous time modifications. No previous time modifications have been requested. 9 4. Effect of the proposed schedule on the schedule for the case. The proposed schedule 10 will result in postponement of the initial case management conference and the dates associated with it, 11 but counsel do not expect the extension to affect the parties’ requested deadlines for discovery, 12 motions, trial, or other matters. In addition, the parties have alreadly worked together to eliminate 13 delay, as shown by the remaining unserved defendants’ agreement to waive service of summons so 14 that all parties will be brought in to this action shortly. 15 16 I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the United States that the foregoing is true and correct. Executed June 23, 2015 at San Francisco, California. /s/ Peter J. Keith PETER J.
