ORDER
JESSE M. FURMAN, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
As the parties know, jury trials in this District are currently limited due to the COVID-19 pandemic and, thus, available courtrooms are allotted subject to a priority system. The Court requested several dates in February and March and was assigned March 3, 2022, as a trial date. That said, once again, there are several cases ahead of this one in the trial queue for that date. If any of those trials proceed, this case will not be tried beginning on March 3, 2022, and the Court will once again have to set a new date. In the event that the trials slated for March 3, 2022, go away, however, trial in this case will begin that date. Accordingly, unless and until the Court says otherwise, the parties must be prepared to begin trial on March 3, 2022. The Court will advise the parties in the event there is a material change in circumstances.
SO ORDERED.
