STIPULATED REQUEST AND [PROPOSED] ORDER TO CONTINUE THE INITIAL CASE MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE

JEFFREY S. WHITE, District Judge.

This Stipulated Request and Proposed Order is entered into and made by Plaintiff Backroads and Defendant Back Roads Touring Co. Limited, by and through their respective counsel of record.

1. Defendant's counsel and plaintiff's counsel jointly request and stipulate pursuant to Civil Local Rules 6-2 and 7-12 that the Court reschedule the Initial Case Management Conference, currently set for Friday, December 4, 2015 at 11:00 a.m. (D.N. 13).

2. The parties are currently discussing possible terms of settlement in an effort to resolve this matter without the need for further litigation and use of judicial resources, and require the requested extension to allow further settlement discussions to take place.

3. In addition to conserving judicial resources, because lead counsel for both parties are located on the east coast, the parties jointly request this extension of time in an effort to avoid the additional cost to the parties of travelling to California if an amicable resolution can otherwise be reached.

4. The parties have not previously requested any modifications to the schedule.

5. If granted, this time modification is not expected to have any effect on the greater schedule for this case.

6. The parties hereby respectfully request that the Initial Case Management Conference be rescheduled to Friday, February 19, 2016 at 11:00 a.m., or as soon thereafter as is convenient for the Court. The parties note that counsel who will be appearing at the Initial Case Management Conference have existing commitments on all Fridays prior to the requested date of February 19, 2016. The parties also respectfully request that their Joint Case Management Statement be due on or before February 12, 2016, and all deadlines calculated from the date of the Initial Case Management Conference be rescheduled accordingly.

[PROPOSED] ORDER

The parties' stipulation to continue the Initial Case Management Conference is granted. The Initial Case Management Conference will take place at 11:00 a.m. on Friday, February 19, 2016 in Courtroom 5. All deadlines calculated from the date of the Initial Case Management Conference shall be rescheduled accordingly.

PURSUANT TO STIPULATION, IT IS SO ORDERED.
