Opinion
Case No. 1:05-cv-126.
February 28, 2006
ORDER STAYING ALL PRETRIAL DEADLINES PENDING COMPLETION OF ARBITRATION
The court conducted an early settlement conference in the above-entitled action on February 6, 2006. During the conference the parties discussed deadlines for submitting a Rule 16(b) Scheduling/Discovery Plan. The court was subsequently advised that the parties have agreed on arbitration, an arbitrator, and a time frame for arbitration. All deadlines, including the deadline for submitting a proposed Scheduling/Discovery Plan and the deadline for filing a response to Defendant's counterclaim, are, therefore, stayed pending completion of arbitration. Once arbitration has been completed, the parties are directed to contact to the court. Thereafter, the undersigned will schedule a status conference.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
