SECOND STIPULATION BETWEEN PLAINTIFF THE LINCOLN NATIONAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND DEFENDANT ANN MORRICAL TO EXTEND DEADLINE TO RESPOND TO COMPLAINT; ORDER THEREON

WILLIAM H. ORRICK, District Judge.

Plaintiff The Lincoln National Life Insurance Company and Defendant Ann Morrical, through their respective counsel of record, hereby stipulate and agree that the deadline for Ann Morrical to respond to the Complaint for Declaratory Relief is extended from March 3, 2014 to April 30, 2014. The parties make this Stipulation on the basis that they are engaged in settlement discussions; that draft settlement documents have been exchanged and are being reviewed; and the parties believe that a resolution of this matter has been reached, subject to final documentation, that will obviate the need to respond to the Complaint.

The Parties disclose that they have previously entered into one similar stipulation that was approved by the Court on February 11, 2014. The Parties further represent that a scheduling conference is presently scheduled for April 22, 2014, and the Parties respectfully request that the scheduling conference be continued to the first available date after April 30, 2014.

Respectfully submitted.
