JOINT STIPULATED REQUEST FOR ORDER CHANGING TIME AND [PROPOSED] ORDER

VINCE CHHABRIA, District Judge.

Defendant United States of America ("Defendant"), by and through its undersigned counsel and Plaintiff Welborn Freeman, Pro Se ("Plaintiff"), hereby stipulate that the current case schedule should be vacated pending assignment of a pro bono attorney to Plaintiff pursuant to Civil Local Rule 6-1(a) of the Northern District of California, as follows:

1. On January 29, 2014, this Court entered a Case Management Schedule setting the following dates. Dkt. No. 80.

Fact discovery cut off: October 31, 2014 Expert disclosure deadline: November 14, 2014 Rebuttal expert disclosure: December 19, 2014 Expert discovery cut-off: January 20, 2015 Dispositive Motion Hearing: March 19, 2015 Pretrial Conference: May 29, 2015 Trial Date: June 29, 2015

2. On July 29, 2014, this Court entered an Order Referring Plaintiff to the Federal Pro Bono Project in response to his request for appointment of counsel, and further staying this matter until four weeks from the date an attorney is appointed to represent Plaintiff. Dkt. No 98.

3. Given the approach of the close of fact discovery and the fact that an attorney has not yet been appointed to Plaintiff, the parties hereby stipulate and respectfully request that the Court vacate the current Case Management Schedule and reset all deadlines in this matter once counsel has been appointed to Plaintiff. The parties respectfully suggest that the Court set a deadline for submission of a Case Management Statement for a date after the appointment of counsel to allow for a suggested schedule subject to the approval of the Court or to request a Case Management Conference if no such schedule can be agreed upon. Because the stay in this matter is scheduled to be lifted automatically four weeks from the date an attorney is appointed to represent Freeman in this action, the parties also respectfully suggest that the Court order submission of the Case Management Statement 30 days after the stay is automatically lifted.

IT IS SO STIPULATED.

[PROPOSED] ORDER

Pursuant to Stipulation by the parties, and good cause having been shown, it is hereby ordered that the Case Management Schedule previously entered in this matter (Dkt. No. 80) is vacated. The parties are ordered to submit a Case Management Statement within 30 days after the stay in this matter is lifted pursuant to this Court's July 29, 2014 Order (Dkt. No. 98.)

IT IS SO ORDERED.
