1

Plaintiff Zynga Game Network Inc. (“Zynga”) hereby files this notice regarding the status of

2

compliance with ADR Local Rule 3-5 in response to the Court’s March 12, 2010 Scheduling Order

3

assigning this action to the Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) Multi-Option Program.

4

For the reasons set forth in Zynga’s Second Motion to Continue the Scheduling Conference

5

currently set for August 27, 2010 and the supporting declaration of Tara D. Rose, Zynga has been

6

unable to serve the defendant with process. (See Dkt. Nos. 18-19.) As a result, Zynga has been

meet and confer with defendants regarding ADR process selection, and to file the ADR Certification

9

and the Stipulation to ADR Process or Notice of Need for ADR Phone Conference forms.

Assuming the Court grants Zynga’s Motion to Continue the Scheduling Conference, and

11

Zynga is able to confirm the identity and location of defendants and serve them with process, Zynga

12

will meet and confer with defendants as required by Rule 26(f) and ADR Local Rule 3-5 no later

13
