JOINT STIPULATION EXTENDING BRIEFING SCHEDULE REGARDING PLAINTIFFS' MOTION FOR CLASS CERTIFICATION

SUSAN ILLSTON, District Judge.

This stipulation is entered into by Plaintiffs Alex Soto and Vince Eagen ("Plaintiffs") and Defendant American Honda Motor Co., Inc. ("Honda" or "Defendant") (collectively, the "Parties"), by and through their respective counsel, with reference to the following facts and recitals:

A. Plaintiffs filed their Class Action Complaint in the subject action on March 19, 2012.

B. In light of the Parties' discussions as to possible resolution of the case, the Parties proposed a brief extension of time for Defendant to produce certain Electronically Stored Information ("ESI"), and for Plaintiffs to complete the Rule 30(b)(6) deposition of Defendant and to file the Motion for Class Certification. On April 1, 2013, the Court adopted the Parties' proposed ESI production and class certification briefing schedule as follows [Docket Entry. No. 67]:

C. In accordance with the Court's April 1 Order, Defendant produced ESI on April 12, 19, and 26.

D. The Parties have recently engaged in further discussion about potential resolution of the case, and have scheduled an in-person conference with counsel to further discuss resolution and to potentially mediate the case.

E. Because of these settlement discussions, and should these discussions not lead to the ultimate resolution of the case, the Parties require additional time within which to complete ESI discovery, the Rule 30(b)(6) deposition, and filing the intended Motion for Class Certification.

F. The Parties therefore respectfully ask the Court to adopt the following slightly modified schedule:

[PROPOSED] CASE MANAGEMENT ORDER

Good cause appearing therefor, the above JOINT STIPULATION EXTENDING BRIEFING SCHEDULE REGARDING PLAINTIFFS' MOTION FOR CLASS CERTIFICATION is approved and all parties shall comply with its provisions.
