PLAINTIFF'S EX PARTE
APPLICATION FOR AN ORDER
CONTINUING INITIAL SCHEDULING
CONFERENCE; AND ORDER
TO THE HONORABLE MICHAEL J. SENG, THE DEFENDANT/S AND THEIR ATTORNEY/S OF RECORD:
Plaintiff Joe Hand Promotions, Inc., hereby applies ex parte for an order continuing the Initial Scheduling Conference presently set for Thursday, March 7, 2013 at 10:30 AM. As set forth below Plaintiff respectfully requests that the Court continue the Initial Scheduling Conference to a new date approximately Thirty (30) to Forty-Five (45) days forward.
The request for the brief continuance is necessitated by the fact that Plaintiff has not yet perfected service of the initiating suit papers upon the Defendant Elk's Lodge Coalinga 1613, an unknown business entity d/b/a Elk's Lodge #1613 a/k/a Coalinga Elk's Lodge 1613. As a result, Plaintiff's counsel has not conferred with the defendant concerning the claims, discovery, settlement, ADR or any of the other pertinent issues involving the case itself or the preparation of a Joint Scheduling Report.
Plaintiff recently identified an alternative address that it believes will be successful to serve its initiating suit papers, upon the Defendant.
WHEREFORE, Plaintiff respectfully requests that this Honorable Court continue the Initial Scheduling Conference, presently scheduled for Thursday, March 7, 2013 at 10:30 AM.
Respectfully submitted,
