4.
On March 30, 2018, the court entered an order and declaratory judgment against
2
Newport stating that Newport has not established title or any interest in the Property and
3
finding that Newport never acquired legal title or interest in the Property and abandoned any
4
interest it may ever have acquired in the Property (the “Order”). ECF No. 24. The Order
5
provided Plaintiffs with the primary relief sought in this action. See Complaint, ECF No. 1.

In light of the Order, Plaintiffs and HOA agree that the remaining claims against
8
HOA can be resolved though informal settlement negotiations. The parties further agree that
9
these negotiations will result in a stipulated dismissal of the remaining claims against HOA.
10
7.
Given the forthcoming resolution of the remaining claims against HOA and to
11
avoid wasting resources and incurring potentially unnecessary expense associated with
12
discovery and continued litigation, Plaintiffs and HOA agree and request a stay of the case to
13
give each side sufficient time and resources to finalize settlement. This stipulation is made in
14
good faith and not for the purpose of delay.
