SCOTT N. JOHNSON, Plaintiff, v. EDWARD D. GIVANT, et al., Defendants.
ORDER SETTING SCHEDULING
CONFERENCE
On March 19, 2012, this case was referred to the undersigned, and the order of referral vacated a status (pretrial scheduling) conference to be conducted by the district judge.(Order, Mar. 19, 2012, Dkt. No. 10.) By this order, the court sets a scheduling conference and orders the parties to file a joint status report. The parties need only update their previously filed Joint Status Report (Dkt.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:
1. A status (pretrial scheduling) conference shall be conducted by the undersigned on August 23, 2012, at 10:00 a.m., in Courtroom 25.
2. The parties shall filed an updated joint status report, or a notice that no updating of the previously filed Joint Status Report is required, at least seven days prior to the status conference.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
