SEAN LANE, et al., Plaintiffs, v. FACEBOOK, INC., et al., Defendants.

Case No. C 08-03845 RS JOINT STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER RE OPEN EXTENSION OF TIME TO RESPOND TO COMPLAINT

Judge:

Richard Seeborg

Plaintiffs and Defendants, by and through their undersigned counsel, hereby stipulate and agree, subject to the approval of the Court, as follows: 1. Defendant Facebook, Inc. intends to file a motion to dismiss the complaint on or

before October 10, 2008, and all parties to this action wish to have that motion to dismiss resolved prior to requiring responsive pleadings from the non-Facebook defendants given similar issues of law pertaining to the claims asserted in the complaint as against such defendants. 2. In furtherance thereof, all parties stipulate that Plaintiffs and each of them will

give each of the non-Facebook defendants an open extension of time to respond to the complaint that Plaintiffs may terminate without Court approval at any time upon thirty (30) days written notice to each of the non-Facebook defendants.

3.

All parties stipulate further that no non-Facebook defendant will respond to the

complaint in any subsequently-filed related case prior to responding to the complaint in this matter and will promptly notify all parties of any subsequently-filed related case. Each nonFacebook defendant will meet and confer with Plaintiffs' counsel with respect to any notice of related cases if such non-Facebook defendant is served with a complaint. 4. The parties respectfully request the Court to reschedule the initial case

management conference, currently scheduled for December 3, 2008 at 2:30 p.m., to sometime in January 2009. The parties further request the Court to schedule a status conference during the week of December 15, 2008, and to relieve the parties from preparing initial disclosures (currently due on November 26, 2008) until a new date is set for the initial case management conference. 5. Given that many of the parties have not yet appeared in this action, all parties

reserve the right to file and serve a Declination to Proceed before the United States Magistrate Judge at any time prior to the filing and service by Plaintiffs of their opposition to Facebook's motion to dismiss.
