Plaintiff Leprino Foods Company ("Leprino"), Defendants Big-D Construction Corp., Big-D Construction Corp-California, Big-D Corporation and Big-D Capital Corp. (collectively, "Big-D"), and Third-Party Defendant Marelich Mechanical Co., Inc. dba University Marelich Mechanical ("UMM") (hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Parties"), each through their respective attorneys of record, hereby stipulate and respectfully move the Court for an Order modifying the Third Amended Scheduling Order to extend the Dispositive Motion deadline. As grounds for this Motion, the parties state as follows: 1. The Third Amended Scheduling Order entered in this case, on or about

November 7, 2005, set the deadline for filing Dispositive Motions to and including January 6, 2006. 2. At or near the time the last fact witness deposition was taken (approximately

two weeks ago), Defendant Big-D outlined a settlement proposal to Leprino which could resolve a substantial portion of this litigation between Leprino and Big-D. Leprino has been considering and evaluating that settlement proposal and expects to respond to Big-D at the end of this week or early next week. The parties believe that if Big-D and Leprino are able to resolve certain issues between them, there is a strong possibility that remaining claims concerning Third Party Defendant UMM may also be resolved. All parties agree that it would be beneficial to enlarge the time to file Dispositive Motions until these discussions are complete. 3. The parties request a 10-day extension of time through and including

January 16, 2006 in which to file Dispositive Motions.
