ORDER

STIPULATION TO (1) CONTINUE CASE MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE AND (2) EXTEND DEADLINE TO RESPOND TO SECOND AMENDED COMPLAINT

RICHARD SEEBORG, District Judge.

Pursuant to Local Rule 6-2, Defendants Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. and The Charles Schwab Corporation ("Defendants" or "Schwab") and Lead Plaintiffs Robert Wolfson and Frank Pino ("Lead Plaintiffs"; collectively the "Parties"), by and through their respective counsel, for good cause, hereby stipulate as follows:

WHEREAS, on December 5, 2017, this Court issued an Order Denying Defendants' Motion to Dismiss the Second Amended Complaint ("Order," ECF 98);

WHEREAS, the initial case management conference ("CMC") is currently scheduled for December 14, 2017, at 10:00 a.m., and the CMC statement is due on December 7, 2017 (ECF 77);

WHEREAS, lead counsel for Schwab has been in arbitration this week, and is expected to be in arbitration through December 8, 2017, thus the parties are unable to meaningfully meet and confer prior to the December 7, 2017 deadline to file the CMC statement;

WHEREAS, the Parties agree that additional time to confer regarding the case schedule, ADR processes, and the CMC statement is necessary in the interest of judicial efficiency, administration and justice, as well as conservation of judicial and private resources;

WHEREAS, the current deadline for Defendants to respond to the Second Amended Complaint ("SAC") is December 19, 2017;

WHEREAS, due to previously-scheduled deadlines and obligations, Defendants have requested and Plaintiffs have agreed to an additional 30 days for Defendants to respond to the SAC;

WHEREAS, the Parties have previously requested and were granted extensions of time to respond to the complaint and requested to continue the initial case management conference (ECF 23, 39, 76), and the changes requested herein will not alter the date of any deadlines already fixed by Court order, as this Court has yet to schedule pre-trial and trial dates.

NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS STIPULATED BY AND AGREED AMONG THE PARTIES, SUBJECT TO APPROVAL BY THIS COURT, by these parties through their respective counsel of record, as follows:

IT IS SO STIPULATED.
