STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER FOR EXTENSION TO FILE A
RESPONSIVE PLEADING
Pursuant to Local Rule 6-1(a), it is hereby stipulated by and between plaintiffs, CELESTINO GARCIA and SAUL ALTAMIRANO (collectively "Plaintiffs") and defendants, HM ISLAMIC, INC. and SHIH-KWEI CHEN (collectively "Defendants"), through their respective attorneys, that Defendants shall have up to and including December 18, 2011 within which to answer or otherwise respond to Plaintiffs' Complaint filed on October 6, 2011.
Defendants only recently retained counsel to defend this case. Defense counsel requires additional time to investigate the factual and legal aspects of this case before filing an appropriate response.
Similarly, because Defendants have only recently retained counsel and the case is not at issue, the parties stipulate and agree that the Case Management Conference currently set for November 22, 2011, should be continued to January 3, 2012, (or a date convenient to the Court in January 2012) in order to provide the parties with an opportunity to meet and confer pursuant to Rule 26 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.
Absent the requested extension, Defendant's response would have been due on November 17, 2011.
