STIPULATION CONTINUING STATUS CONFERENCE AND [PROPOSED] ORDER
GARLAND E. BURRELL, Jr., Senior District Judge.
IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED and agreed by and between plaintiff PAUL E. DOLAN III ("DOLAN") and defendant MENDOCINO WINE GROUP, LLC ("MWG"), through their attorneys of record, that the Status Conference currently set for August 19, 2013, shall be continued for three weeks. This continuance is requested in order to allow sufficient time for counsel to prepare and timely file their Joint Status Report. Preparation of the Joint Status Report was deferred pending a ruling on MWG's Motion to Transfer but that Motion has not yet been decided, and due to a previously planned absence from the office, trial counsel for MWG is not available to confer and prepare the Joint Status Report in time for it to be filed by the present due date of August 5, 2013.
It is further stipulated and agreed that MWG's time to answer or otherwise move with respect to the Complaint shall be extended until either: (1) 14 days after this Court has ruled on the Motion to Transfer, if the Motion is denied; or (2) 14 days after the case has been assigned to a Judge of the transferee Court, if the Motion is granted.
ORDER
IT IS SO ORDERED. The Status Conference currently set for August 19, 2013 is hereby continued to October 28, 2013, at 9:00 a.m. A joint status report shall be filed fourteen days prior to the hearing.
