CITY OF PHILADELPHIA et al., Plaintiffs, v. BANK OF AMERICA CORPORATION, Defendants.
ORDER
JESSE M. FURMAN, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the TIME of the conference in this matter, previously scheduled for November 3, 2022, at 4:15 p.m., is CHANGED to 9:15 a.m. on the same date. The parties are reminded that, per the Case Management Plan and Scheduling Order (“CMP”), ECF No. 279, counsel should submit their joint status letter on ECF no later than the Thursday prior to the upcoming pretrial conference. The letter should address, in addition to the issues set forth in the CMP, whether the parties can do without a conference altogether. Unless and until the Court orders otherwise, all existing dates and deadlines - including, as appropriate, the deadlines for class certification motions, summary judgment motions, and/or a proposed joint pretrial order, as set forth in the CMP - remain in effect.
If, after reviewing the parties' joint status letter, the Court concludes that a conference is unnecessary at this time, it will issue an order canceling or rescheduling it. If a conference is held, it will be by telephone. The parties should join it by calling the Court's dedicated conference line at (888) 363-4749 and using access code 542-1540, followed by the pound (#) key. Further, counsel should review and comply with the procedures for telephone conferences set forth in the Court's Individual Rules and Practices for Civil Cases, available at https://nysd. uscourts.gov/hon-iesse-m-furman, including Rule 3(B)(i), which requires the parties, no later than 24 hours before the conference, to send a joint email to the Court with the names and honorifics (e.g., Mr., Ms., Dr., etc.) of counsel who may speak during the teleconference and the telephone numbers from which counsel expect to join the call.
SO ORDERED.
