Defendants.
Plaintiffs and Defendants, by and through their undersigned counsel stipulate and agree
as follows:
1.

On November 19, 2019, Defendants Dean Meiling, Madylon Meiling, Chemeon

25

Surface Technology, LLC, Metalast Surface Technology, LLC, D&M-MI, LLC, DSM Partners,

26

Ltd., and Meiling Family Partners, Ltd. (collectively, “Meiling Defendants”) filed their

27

Renewed Motion to Dismiss (ECF No. 134) and Special Motion to Dismiss (ECF No. 137), as

28

well as their Request for Judicial Notice related to the Renewed Motion to Dismiss (ECF No.
-113181-01/2333919.docx

1

135) and Declaration of Timothy A. Lukas (ECF No. 136) (together, the “Meiling Defendants’

2

Motions”).

3

2.

On November 22, 2019, Defendant Janet Chubb filed her Motion to Dismiss

4

Claims Contained in Class Action (ECF No. 140) and joinders to the Meiling Defendants’

5

Motions (ECF Nos. 138 and 139) (together, the Chubb Defendant’s Motions”).

6

3.

Pursuant to LR II 7-2(b), Plaintiffs responses to the Meiling Defendants Motions

7

were due on or before December 3, 2019, and their response to the Chubb Defendant Motions

8

was due on or before December 6, 2019.

9

4.

On December 4, 2019, this Court granted the Parties’ stipulation to resetting the

10

due dates for responses to the Meiling Defendants’ Motions and the Chubb Defendant’s Motions

11

(ECF No. 142), which set a new due date of December 13, 2019. This Stipulation further

12

extended the deadline for the Meiling Defendants and the Chubb Defendant to file reply briefs

13

to January 3, 2020.

14

5.

The parties hereby stipulate to extend the deadline for Plaintiffs to respond to the

15

Meiling Defendants’ Motions and Chubb Defendant’s Motion until December 16, 2019, an

16

extension of three (3) calendar days.

17

6.

The parties hereby further stipulate to extend the deadline for the Meiling

18

Defendans and the Chubb Defendant to file reply briefs until January 6, 2020, an extension of

19

three (3) calendar days

20

7.

Pursuant to LR IA 6-1, this second request for an extension for Plaintiffs to file

21

their response briefs and for the Meiling Defendants’ Motions and the Chubb Defendant to file

22

their reply briefs. Plaintiffs make this request with good cause and in good faith and not for

23

purposes of delay. The Parties in this action have worked to coordinate the timing for filing

24

pleadings in this case and affiliated cases in a consolidated fashion, and to account for the

25

availability of counsel over the holiday periods. This particular request is made to accommodate

26

the deposition calendar for Plaintiffs’ counsel in a different matter along with complexities in

27

Plaintiffs’ review and analysis of draft responses to the Meiling Defendants’ Motions and the

28

Chubb Defendant’s Motions given the large number of putative class plaintiffs. This is the
-213181-01/2333919.docx

1

Parties’ second request for an extension of time to file responses to the motions. Counsel do not

2

believe that the brief extension requested herein will cause any undue delay in this action.

3

IT IS SO STIPULATED.

4

DATED this 13th day of December, 2019.
