RICHARD SEEBORG, District Judge.
Defendants Swiss International Air Lines Ltd. and Travix Travel USA Inc. (the "Stipulating Defendants") and Plaintiff The Wave Studio, LLC hereby stipulate and request that the Court continue the Initial Case Management Conference in this case, currently scheduled for October 8, 2015.
The Stipulating Defendants are two of five Defendants in this action: Defendant Hotels Combined LLC has not appeared in this action. Defendant VisitUSA has also not appeared in this action, but on behalf of Visit USA, David Urman has filed a pro se motion to dismiss VisitUSA. The hearing date for that motion was vacated when this case was reassigned to Judge Seeborg and Mr. Urman has not renoticed the motion.
None of the defendants has answered or otherwise responded to the Complaint. The current response dates are as follows:
• Plaintiff served Swiss International Airlines Ltd. with the complaint on May 19, 2015, with a stipulated deadline to answer of October 9, 2015.
• Plaintiff served British Airways Plc with the complaint on May 20, 2015, with a stipulated deadline to answer of October 9, 2015.

• Plaintiff served VisitUSA with the complaint on May 23, 2015, with a deadline to answer of June 16, 2015.
The stipulating defendants are currently exploring whether they can reach agreement with Plaintiff and the other two defendants for a transfer of this case to the Southern District of New York, where a related case is currently pending. A continuance of the Case Management Conference will afford the parties an opportunity to explore whether the case should be transferred or stayed. If the case is not transferred or stayed, the continuance will afford the other defendants an opportunity to appear in the case and/or participate in the Case Management Conference.
Accordingly, the stipulating parties hereby request that the Court continue the Case Management Conference, currently scheduled for October 8, 2015, to November 5, 2015 at 10:00 a.m. or to a date convenient to the Court thereafter. IT IS SO STIPULATED:
