22 Civ. 4166 (LGS)
09-01-2022
LEOCADIA JERONIMO, Plaintiff, v. DISFRUTA PRODUCTS, LLC, et al., Defendants.
ORDER
LORNA G. SCHOFIELD UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
WHEREAS, the initial pretrial conference in this matter is scheduled for September 7, 2022. (Dkt. No. 21.)
WHEREAS, no significant issues were raised in the parties' joint letter or proposed case management plan. (See Dkt. Nos. 22, 23.) It is hereby
ORDERED that the September 7, 2022, initial pretrial conference is CANCELED. If the parties believe that a conference would nevertheless be useful, they should inform the Court immediately so the conference can be reinstated. The case management plan and scheduling order will issue in a separate order. The parties' attention is particularly directed to the provisions for periodic status letters, and the need for a pre-motion letter to avoid cancellation of the final conference and setting of a trial date. It is further
ORDERED that if Defendant seeks to file a motion to dismiss, Defendant shall file a premotion letter pursuant to Individual Rules III.A.1 and III.C.2.
The parties should be aware that the Court does not extend the deadlines for fact and expert discovery -- including while the parties are engaged in mediation -- absent compelling circumstances.
