1

WHEREAS counsel for Nationstar and Freddie Mac has indicated that it will be unlikely

2

3

due to already scheduled depositions and trials;

4

WHEREAS the discovery deadline for this matter is set for August 22, 2017.

5

WHEREAS Nationstar and Freddie Mac filed a motion to stay discovery [ECF No. 13],

6

which Defendants joined [ECF No. 14];

7

WHEREAS Nationstar and Freddie Mac requested Defendants re-notice the depositions for

8

a mutually agreeable date due to unavailability during the month of August, as well as the pending

9

motion to stay discovery;

10

WHEREAS Nationstar and Freddie Mac agreed that Defendants, in order to accommodate

11

the schedules of the Nationstar and Freddie Mac and their counsel, may take the depositions of

and Freddie Mac agree that Defendants may take the depositions of Nationstar and Freddie Mac

15

on a mutually agreeable date when and if the stay is lifted;

16

WHEREAS by executing this stipulation, Nationstar and Freddie Mac do not concede the
