NOTICE REGARDING INITIAL PRETRIAL CONFERENCE: An Initial Pretrial Conference is currently scheduled for June 25, 2019. Please note that since the conference was scheduled, the Court has changed its individual rules, and would like to bring the following paragraph to the parties' attention: The Court schedules initial pretrial conferences with the expectation that one or more of the parties would like an in-person opportunity to bring matters to the Court's attention, and it welcomes that opportunity. However, the Court recognizes that in certain circumstances as, for example, where the parties are in agreement about the proposed discovery schedule and have no issues to raise with the Court such conferences may represent less-efficient uses of the parties' time and resources. If the parties agree on a schedule that calls for the close of all discovery within six months, and have no other issues to raise with the Court, the parties can, if they wish, submit a Proposed Civil Case Management Plan and Scheduling Order and request in their joint letter that the initial pretrial conference be cancelled. The Court will ordinarily grant such requests. ***No PDF is attached to this entry. (tn) |
