ORDER HOLDING IN ABEYANCE MOTION FOR A TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER AND SETTING FURTHER DEADLINES
ROBERT H. CLELAND UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
On June 21, 2022, Plaintiff filed both its Complaint and a “Motion for Temporary Restraining Order and Preliminary Injunction.” Plaintiff requested summons for each Defendant which were issued by the clerk of the court of June 22, 2022. The court has reviewed Plaintiff's motion and determined that it appropriate to hold the motion in abeyance until the court can expediently hold a (likely in-person) conference with counsel and party representatives. Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that Plaintiff is DIRECTED to effectuate proper service of its Complaint and Motion on Defendants by Friday, June 24, 2022.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the parties' counsel are DIRECTED to jointly contact the court, via an email to the court's case manager, AS SOON AS PRACTICAL in order to determine an appropriate date for an in-person conference to determine the necessary course of action and to discuss pending request for a temporary restraining order. The court expects this conference will likely occur as early as June 27th but in any event within the next seven days. Party representatives with effectively full settlement authority will be required to appear.
