SHERI POLSTER CHAPPELL UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
Before the Court is Defendant Golden Manufacturing, Inc.'s Motion to Stay Patent Proceedings in View of Parallel Proceedings Against Defendant Snap Dock, LLC in Indiana (Doc. 46). Plaintiff E-Z Dock, Inc claims Golden failed to satisfy Local Rule 3.01(g)'s requirement to meet and confer in good faith before filing the Motion. The emails attached to E-Z Dock's response suggest there is potential for agreement on the relief Golden seeks, but Golden filed the Motion before fully exploring a possible resolution.
Accordingly, the Court ORDERS the parties to confer in good faith on the relief sought in the Motion. The parties must file a joint report on the conference no later than January 27, 2022. The Court takes the Motion under advisement and will decide it after the parties file the joint report.
