Opinion
No. C11-2248 WHA (BZ)
10-18-2011
HENRY A. KLYCE and CAROL M. KLYCE, Plaintiff(s), v. JOHN WHEELER, KATHERINE KLYCE, as Trustee and Administratrix of The Estate of John Wheeler, and ELLEN KLYCE, Defendant(s).
AMENDED ORDER DENYING MOTIONS
FOR ORDER SHORTENING TIME AND
CONTINUE SETTLEMENT
CONFERENCE
Before the Court are a variety of motions filed by plaintiffs in an effort to continue the settlement conference presently scheduled for Thursday, November 17, 2011 at 9:00 a.m. Having read the papers submitted, the Court finds no need for argument and DENIES the motions (Docket Nos. 32 and 33). Plaintiffs have made no showing that they cannot complete their forensic examination before November 17, 2011. It appears that plaintiffs have retained a forensic consultant, and defendants are willing to allow inspection. The Court sees no reason why the inspection cannot be completed by November 17, 2001. As for the other information counsel is seeking, the parties are reminded of their responsibilities pursuant to the Order Scheduling Settlement Conference to cooperate in providing discovery informally and expeditiously. If the parties cannot agree on an inspection protocol by Monday, October 24, 2011, plaintiff shall immediately advise the Court.
