I, David J. Cook, hereby declare and state as follows:
1. Lam one of the attorneys of record for Plaintiff and Appellant Ida Cristina Cruz Fua, in
the above-entitled action, am duly authorized to practice before all courts in the State of
California, and am familiar with the facts and circumstances in this action.
2. Yellow Cab Cooperative, Inc. (“Yellow Cab”) has filed a petition for bankruptcy in the
United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of California. (/n re Yellow Cab
Cooperative, Inc.; N.D. Cal.; Docket No. 16-30063 DM 11.) A true and correct copy of Yellow
Cab’s bankruptcy petition is submitted as Exhibit A to this declaration.
2. Fua’s Notice of Appeal from the Superior Court judgment was filed in the San
Francisco County Superior Court on January 14, 2016. Joel Enrique Andino Sanchez’s Notice of
Appeal was filed on January 22, 2016. Yellow Cab Cooperative, Inc.’s Notice of Appeal was
filed on January 21, 2016. Yellow Cab’s bankruptcy petition was filed in the United States
Bankruptcy Court on January 22, 2016. On January 25, 2016, Fua filed in the Superior Court a
“Notice of Stay of Proceeding.” A true and correct copy of that notice is submitted as Exhibit B to
this declaration.
3. Also, on January 28, 2016, Yellow Cab filed in the Superior Court a “Notice of Stay of
Proceeding.” A true and correct copy of that Yellow Cab notice is submitted as Exhibit C to this
declaration.
4. Fua also informs this Court that, on February 5, 2016, the Superior Court erroneously
issued a “Notice Re: Default” for Fua’s asserted failure to timely file a Notice Designating the
Record on Appeal. According to that notice, if Fua does not file a designation of the record by
February 20, the Superior Court may dismiss Fua’s appeal. A true and correct copy of that notice
is attached as Exhibit D to this declaration. But Fua is and has been legally precluded from doing
so by the bankruptcy stay. And as noted above, Fua filed in the Superior Court a “Notice of Stay
of Proceeding” on January 25, 2016, eleven (11) days before the Superior Court issued its default
notice. A true and correct copy of that January 25, 2016 notice is attached as Exhibit B to this
