PARTIES' STIPULATION TO CONTINUE THE TRIAL DATE AND ORDER

TROY L. NUNLEY, District Judge.

TO THIS HONORABLE COURT AND ALL PARTIES AND THEIR COUNSEL OF RECORD:

Plaintiffs JOSEPH CABARDO, DONNABEL SUYAT, MACTABE BIBAT, MARISSA BIBAT, ALICIA BOLLING, RENATO MANIPON, CARLINA CABACONGAN, AND JOHN DAVE CABACONGAN ("Plaintiffs") and Defendants MARILYN PATACSIL AND ERNESTO PATACSIL ("Defendants") (collectively the "parties"), by and through their counsel of record, hereby stipulate as follows:

Whereas the parties respectfully submit that good cause exists for continuing the existing trial date in this matter;

Whereas the parties have not sought a prior continuance of the trial date in this matter;

Whereas Plaintiffs' counsel has another trial that has now been set for May 21, 2018 in state court and represents that two concurrent jury trials (this one with eight plaintiffs) is overly burdensome for its practice;

Whereas Defense counsel represents that it has a highly impacted litigation calendar from July 2018 through October 2018; and

Whereas the parties remain committed to participating in good faith in the April 9, 2018 Settlement Conference with Magistrate Delaney that this Court set due, in part, to the congestion of its trial court calendar.

THEREFORE, the parties hereby stipulate to and propose a continuance of the existing trial date to November 14, 2018, or a date thereafter that is amenable to the Court and the parties.

IT IS SO STIPULATED.
