JOINT STIPULATION TO CONTINUE CASE MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE
[ORAL ARGUMENT NOT REQUIRED UNLESS REQUESTED BY THE COURT]
EDWARD M. CHEN, District Judge.
IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED by and between Plaintiff CHRIS JENKINS and Defendant DICKEY'S BARBECUE RESTAURANTS, INC. that the Case Management Conference now set December 8, 2017 at 1:30 p.m., and all associated deadlines, including the deadlines to make initial disclosures, file a case management statement, and file ADR documents, may be continued for a period of at least six (6) months, to a date convenient to this Court.
The Parties enter into this stipulation in light of the fact that the Court has stayed this case pending arbitration, pursuant to the terms set forth in the November 12, 2015 Order Granting Defendant's Motion to Compel Arbitration in Meadows, et al. v. Dickey's Barbecue, Inc., Case No.: 3:15-cv-02139-JST, which is also stayed pending the results of the Plaintiffs' individual arbitrations filed at the American Arbitration Association.
Plaintiff filed a Demand for Arbitration on September 15, 2017. The Parties have recently appointed and confirmed an arbitrator to hear Defendant's Motion to Dismiss, which was filed on November 15, 2017. The arbitration proceedings are in the early stages at the American Arbitration Association, and no hearing date has been set.
The Parties respectfully request the Court continue the Case Management Conference pending arbitration, for a period of at least six (6) months, to a date convenient for the Court.
IT IS SO STIPULATED.
