STIPULATION

2

Pursuant to Local Rules 6-1, 6-2 and 7-1, all parties through their counsel of record enter

3

into this Stipulation to extend the current scheduling order deadlines for close of class discovery

4

and for Plaintiffs to file a motion for class certification. This is the third request for an extension.

5

In support of this request, the parties represent the following to the Court:

6

1.

On May 5, 2015, the Court approved the parties’ request to extend the close of

7

class discovery to August 31, 2015, and to set September 30, 2015, as the deadline for Plaintiffs’

8

class certification motion to allow Plaintiffs time to conduct discovery of third-party Twilio, Inc.

9

(Plaintiffs allege Twilio helped Defendants send the text messages at issue) and to give the parties

11
1201 Third Avenue, Suite 2200
Seattle, Washington 98101
[phone] FAX: [phone]

DAVIS WRIGHT TREMAINE LLP

10

the opportunity to mediate their dispute [Dkt. 54].
2.

On June 25, 2015, the parties held a mediation with Hon. William C. Pate (ret.) of

12

JAMS in San Diego, California. Although the parties did not reach a settlement at the mediation,

13

the parties continued their settlement efforts with Judge Pate’s assistance.

14

3.

On July 27, 2015, Plaintiffs filed motions to amend their respective complaints in

15

this consolidated proceeding [Dkts. 59 & 60]. Plaintiffs seek to add as defendants Twilio and

16

Saxe Theater, LLC, and to have the respective complaints name all defendants that had to that

17

point been named in either complaint. Defendants did not oppose the motions.

18

4.

By August 17, 2015, the parties discontinued their settlement efforts through Judge

19

Pate. On August 17, 2015, Defendants served notices for the depositions of both Plaintiffs for the

20

morning and afternoon, respectively, of August 26, 2015.

21

5.

Given the likelihood of Twilio being joined in this lawsuit and to allow Twilio the

22

opportunity to participate in Plaintiffs’ depositions and for Plaintiffs to conduct discovery of

23

Twilio, the parties stipulate and jointly ask the Court for a continuance of the above deadlines as

24

follows:

25
26
27
28

a. The current August 31, 2015, Close of Class Discovery should be continued to
October 30, 2015; and
b. The current September 30, 2015, Deadline to file Motion to Certify Class
should be continued to November 30, 2015.
