ORDER TO STAY DISCOVERY PENDING RULING ON DEFENDANTS' MOTION TO DISMISS FOR LACK OF PERSONAL JURISDICTION

PEGGY A. LEEN, Magistrate Judge.

Defendants, CST USA, INC.; CST BRANDS, INC.; CST REAL ESTATE HOLDINGS, LLC; CST REAL ESTATE HOLDINGS, INC.; CST BRANDS HOLDINGS, INC., and CST BRANDS HOLDINGS, LLC ("Defendants") and Plaintiff, Michael R. Yazdi ("Plaintiff") (Defendants and Plaintiff are collectively referred to as the "Parties"), by and through their respective attorneys of record stipulate and agree as follows:

WHEREAS, on August 14, 2015, Defendants filed a motion to dismiss for lack of jurisdiction, or in the alternative to transfer this action to the District of Arizona, (the "Motion," Docket No. 18) based primarily on (i) the terms and conditions of the promotional contest at issue in this case confirming that the contest was open exclusively to Arizona residents and requiring Arizona jurisdiction and venue, and (ii) information recently received indicating that Plaintiff was a resident of Arizona at the time of the promotional contest.

WHEREAS, in light of this new and potentially dispositive information, and in light of the Court's pending decision on the Motion establishing the proper jurisdiction and venue for this matter, the parties believe that litigating in this District under the current discovery schedule would be inequitable, and may lead to significant unnecessary and duplicative work.

NOW, THEREFORE, in the interest of efficiency and judicial economy, the Parties respectfully request that the Court enter an order staying discovery pending the resolution of Defendants' Motion to dismiss for lack of personal jurisdiction.

Within 14 days of the entry of the Court's order denying the Motion and retaining jurisdiction in this District, the Parties will submit a modified discovery and briefing schedule based on the timelines previously approved and entered by this Court.

IT IS SO STIPULATED.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
