Subject to the approval of the Court, the undersigned parties hereby stipulate that the telephonic

26 case management conference currently set for September 18, 2014 at 2:30 p.m., be continued until
27 October 2, 2014 at 2:30 p.m., and that the parties’ deadline to submit a joint case management statement

STIPULATION TO CONTINUE CMC
C13-1593 SBA

1

1

Plaintiff has sued defendant, United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (“ICE”), for

2 alleged violation of the Freedom of Information Act (“FOIA”), 5 U.S.C. § 552. In the parties’ last Joint
3 Case Management Statement, filed on June 19, 2014, the parties informed the Court that ICE agreed to
4 conduct several searches described in the parties’ February 25, 2014 stipulation (see ECF No. 33), and
5 that ICE had begun a rolling production of documents.
6

ICE completed its production on August 29, 2014. At this time, the parties anticipate that the

7 issues in this case will be challenges to the withholdings/exemptions under the FOIA claimed by
8 defendant in productions made from the searches described in the parties’ February 25, 2014 stipulation,
9 and that those challenges will be resolved on summary judgment.
10

The parties request a short continuance of the case management conference because plaintiff is

11 currently in the process of reviewing documents provided by defendant to determine what, if any,
12 withholdings/exemptions plaintiff intends to challenge. Plaintiff expects to complete its review by
13 September 22, 2014. Accordingly, the parties respectfully request that the telephonic case management
14 conference currently set for September 18, 2014 at 2:30 p.m., be continued to October 2, 2014 at 2:30
15 p.m. to allow the parties additional time to determine what, if any, issues remain for summary judgment.
