Upon request of counsel, the NVOCC Interests will grant the Cargo Interests, in regard to claims that are currently on time extensions, further extensions of time to file suit or to commence arbitration up to and including August 31, 2023 on the same terms, conditions, and reservations as set forth in the prior extensions. No formal discovery shall be undertaken before March 31, 2023, but the parties may voluntarily exchange documents in the context of settlement discussions.

ORDER granting in part and denying in part (196) Letter Motion for Oral Argument; granting in part and denying in part (207) Letter Motion for Oral Argument in case 1:22-md-03028-PAE. Accordingly, any counsel who intends to be heard, or who reserves the opportunity to be heard at the conference must appear in person. Recognizing the costs and inconvenience that travel may present for some counsel, the Court will, however, permit counsel who do not seek to speak at the conference to audit the conference telephonically. It is essential that every distinct interest in this case be represent by a counsel attending in person. The Court therefore expects that, at a minimum, each relevant group of interests (e.g., Cargo Counsel; NVOCC; Vessel) be represented in person at the conference, and that any party that chooses not to send a counsel in person have delegated authority to speak at the conference to a counsel attending in person. To assure clarity as to which counsel will be attending, and as to the delegated authority that each counsel will have, the Court directs counsel for each group of interests to file on the docket of this case a letter, due December 12, 2022, identifying all counsel who will attend, and the party or parties on behalf of which each will have authority to speak. To the extent that counsel wish the Court make a record of those counsel who will be auditing the conference telephonically, the above letters should set out the names of such counsel. To the extent that counsel, parties, or the public wish to audit the conference, they should call into the Court's dedicated conference line at (888) 363-4749, and enter Access Code 468-4906, followed by the (#) key. Counsel are directed to review the Court's Emergency Individual Rules and Practices in Light of COVID-19, as further set forth herein. Counsel should arrive by 2 p.m. on December 15, 2022, and be prepared for the conference to begin at 2:30 p.m. The Clerk of the Court is respectfully ordered to terminate the motions pending at dockets 196 and 207.
