STIPULATION TO STAY MATTER AND AND ORDER OF CONDITIONAL
SETTLEMENT
HYATT CORPORATION dba HYATT REGENCY MAUI RESORT & SPA and MAUI BOAT CO., by and through their counsel of record, Gibson Robb & Lindh LLP, and Plaintiffs ROSE BALDWIN, MICHAEL BALDWIN, SHANDLE T.B. HANKINS and AARON HANKINS, by and through their counsel of record, Andrew E. Bakos & Associates, P.C., hereby enter into the below stipulation regarding stay and conditional settlement.
The parties hereby stipulate that they have reached a conditional settlement agreement in this case. The conditions have yet to be satisfied and therefore the parties agree that this matter should be stayed and all pending motions should be taken off calendar to allow time for the conditions to be satisfied and the case resolved in full. The parties anticipate that it will take 60- 90 days to satisfy the conditions, which center around Medicare reimbursement and set-aside issues. Defendants' motion for summary judgment and, in the alternative, partial summary judgment, and Defendants' motion to bifurcate are currently set to be heard on August 17, 2011. Plaintiffs' motion for partial summary judgment is set to be heard on August 17, 2011. Oppositions to all three motions are due August 3, 2011.
Based on the foregoing, the parties request that the currently pending action be stayed and all pending motions be taken off calendar and that the Court permit the motions to be re-filed should the settlement conditions fail to be satisfied and the case resolved in full in the next 90 days.
