STIPULATION
Plaintiff Latasha McLaughlin and Defendant Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., by and through their
3 respective counsel, stipulate as follows:
4
WHEREAS, under the Court’s Notice [Dkt. 17], the parties were precluded from discussing a
5 class settlement until the Court ruled on class certification;
6
WHEREAS, on June 22, 2016, the Court issued an order certifying two classes under TILA
7 [Dkt. 123] and set deadlines of July 12, 2016 for a joint notice plan to be submitted to the court, and
8 to plan to distribute class notice by July 28, 2016;
9
WHEREAS, the litigation to date has largely joined the merits and class certification issues,
REED SMITH LLP
A limited liability partnership formed in the State of Delaware
10 and framed the parties’ positions. Therefore following the Court’s ruling on class certification,
11 which opened the door to engage in settlement discussions, the parties promptly began negotiations
12 and held a telephone settlement conference with Magistrate Judge Ryu on June 30, 2016;
13
WHEREAS, the parties will attend an in-person mediation with Magistrate Judge Ryu on
14 August 5, 2016 at 10:00 am;
15
WHEREAS, the Court’s Scheduling Order [Dkt. 37], issued in October 2015, originally set a
16 class certification hearing for February 2016 and discovery deadlines in August 2016. The Order
17 thus contemplated approximately 6 months from the issuance of an order on class certification until
18 the discovery cutoff, for the parties to discuss a class resolution. Because class certification was not
19 ruled on until June 22, 2016, however, the time available for the parties to meaningfully discuss
20 resolution is now substantially shorter.
21
WHEREAS, the parties are presently engaging in good faith settlement discussions and
22 mutually seek to focus their respective resources on timely reaching a class resolution;
23

26
THEREFORE, Plaintiff and Wells Fargo hereby agree as follows:
1. Class Notice:
a. To extend the deadline to submit a joint proposal for class notification from
Tuesday, July 12, 2016 to Tuesday, August 23, 2016;

b. Plaintiff’s Opposition shall be filed by September 29, 2016;
7
c. Wells Fargo’s Reply shall be filed by October 13, 2016.

3. Other Pretrial Deadlines:

11
b. The expert deadlines set in paragraph 5 of the Court’s Scheduling Order [Dkt.
12
37] shall be continued by 28 days, such that the last date for designation of
13
expert testimony and disclosure of expert reports on issues where a party has
14
the burden of proof shall be continued from August 31, 2016 to September 28,
15
2016. Opposition and reply report deadlines, expert discovery cutoff, and
16
other deadlines in Paragraphs 5 and 6 (damages studies) of the Scheduling
17
Order are triggered off the September 28, 2016 opening report date as
18
indicated in the Court’s Scheduling Order;
19
c. The remaining dates in the Court’s Scheduling Order, including the
20
September 29 deadline to file dispositive motions; November 3, 2016 deadline
21
to hear dispositive motions, November 30, 2016 pretrial conference, and
22
December 5, 2016 trial date, remain as set by the Court.
