28 TEXT ORDER: the joint motion 22 to opt out of ADR is denied. The excuse of
plaintiff for filing the motion late does not excuse the failure timely to file the joint
motion by defendants. Moreover, the Court has carefully reviewed the grounds offered
in support of the motion and finds no good cause to opt out of ADR. The individual
request of plaintiff that the Court order nonparties to attend the mediation is also
denied. Because the Court did not decide the joint opt out motion sooner, an extension
of time to confer and select a Mediator, confirm availability of the Mediator, ensure
the Mediator does not have a conflict with any parties, identify a date and time for the
initial mediation session, and to file the stipulation confirming the selection of the
Mediator, is granted nunc pro tunc to January 18, 2013. The action remains committed
to Magistrate Judge Schroeder pursuant to the Courts October 5, 2012 Text Order 22 .
