Defendants.

/
Based on the parties’ stipulation and their representations at today’s case management

22

conference, this case is hereby STAYED UNTIL JUNE 16, 2016. A further case management

23

conference is hereby set for ELEVEN A.M. ON JUNE 16, 2016. The parties shall file a joint case

24

management statement by JUNE 9, 2016. It is very unlikely that the stay in this case will be

25

continued past June. Certainly, the case will not be further stayed at that point without

26

defendants having submitted sworn evidence detailing each of their financial conditions and

27

financial ability to defend against this lawsuit.

1

By DECEMBER 31, 2015, the parties shall file a joint statement indicating whether the

2

two insurance companies involved in our case will agree to mediation by a magistrate judge in

3

the Northern District of California. If yes, then the Court will promptly appoint a mediator. If

4

the insurance companies do not agree to mediation, then the case will remain stayed until June.

5

The hearing set for January 21 is VACATED.
