STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER TO STAY DISCOVERY AND MOTION PRACTICE PENDING A PRIVATE MEDIATION BETWEEN THE PARTIES

Defendants Corporation of the President of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints ("COP") and Corporation of the Presiding Bishop of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints ("CPB") (COP and CPB are collectively "The Church Defendants"), through the law firm Carbajal & McNutt LLP, Plaintiffs Krishan Lai, Kuldip Kaur, Kanchan Paul, and Ranjana Paul (collectively "Plaintiffs"), through the Law Office of Julie A. Mersch and Craig P. Kenny & Associates, Counter-Defendant Krishan Lai, through the Harper Law Group, and Defendant Marina Long, through the law firm Kolesar & Leatham, hereby stipulate to stay discovery and motion practice, so as to afford adequate time for the Parties to prepare for and participate in a private mediation.

The Parties hereby stipulate and agree to the following terms:

1. The Parties shall participate in a private mediation in Las Vegas, Nevada (hereinafter, the "Mediation") in a good faith effort settle and resolve all claims in this litigation. 2. The Mediation shall be conducted by Gene Porter. 3. The Mediation shall occur no sooner than the middle of February 2016, subject to the availability of the Parties and their representatives. 4. The specific conditions and particulars of the private mediation have been agreed to by the parties and are not set forth herein. 5. To accommodate the Mediation, the Parties stipulate and agree to stay all existing discovery deadlines, ECF No. 37, and to refrain from filing any motions until March 1, 2016. Good cause exists for the entrance of this stay. The stay will maximize the chance of this case being resolved at the Mediation by (1) allowing the Parties to focus their attention upon the Mediation, and (2) minimizing the Parties' fees and costs prior to the Mediation. 6. On March 1, 2016, the Parties shall file a status report advising this Court whether a settlement agreement has been reached. If no settlement agreement has been reached, then on that date, the Parties also will submit a stipulation and proposed order to extend the existing discovery deadlines. (ECF No. 37.) Discovery deadlines that have already expired as of the date of this Stipulation and Order shall not be revived. 7. This request is made in good faith and not for purposes of delay.

IT IS SO ORDERED:
