Plaintiffs respectfully request that the Court continue the case management conference currently set for January 10, 2008, at 2:45 p.m. to April 10, 2008. Plaintiffs filed the Complaint against Defendant John Doe #4 ("Defendant") on September 20, 2007. Also on September 20, 2007, Plaintiffs filed their Ex Parte Application for Leave to Take Immediate Discovery seeking the Court's permission to serve a Rule 45 subpoena on San Francisco State University ("SFSU"), so that Plaintiffs could obtain information sufficient to identify Defendant. On October 4, 2007, this Court issued its Order Granting Plaintiffs' Ex Parte Application for Leave to Take Immediate Discovery authorizing Plaintiffs to serve a Rule 45 subpoena on SFSU. On November 16, 2007, SFSU responded to Plaintiffs' subpoena, providing Plaintiffs with identifying information including Defendant's name, telephone number, and address. After learning Defendant's identity, Plaintiffs have made several attempts to contact Defendant to attempt to resolve this dispute without further litigation. If Plaintiffs are unable to contact Defendant and resolve the dispute, Plaintiffs plan to file an amended complaint naming Defendant personally. Given the foregoing circumstances, and because there is not yet a named defendant in this case, a case management conference is unnecessary at this time. Plaintiffs therefore respectfully request that the Court continue the case management conference currently set for January 10, 2008, at 2:45 p.m. to April 10, 2008.
