NOTE ON CALENDAR: 2/16/2012

Defendants.

I.

Stipulation.

13

Following the filing of the last stipulation in this matter (Dkt. #16), new

14

facts have arisen which are relevant to this action and which may eliminate the

15

need for further litigation. In the interests of avoiding unnecessary labor by both

16

parties and the Court, the parties request that the Court hold this matter in

17

abeyance until September 28, 2012 to give the parties time to investigate the new

18

facts. The parties further request that the deadlines for exchange of initial

19

disclosures and filing of the joint status report be stricken, and that both the

20

plaintiff’s pending motion for summary judgment and the defendants’ cross-

21

motion for discovery be withdrawn, without prejudice to renewal at a future date.
