JOINT REQUEST FOR CASE
MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE
AND ORDER THEREON
Ctrm: 11
Judge: Hon. Jeffrey S. White
DEMAND FOR JURY TRIAL
Louisiana Pacific Corporation ("LP") and Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. ("DBSI") jointly request that the Court schedule a Case Management Conference ("CMC") for December 2, 2011 at 3:00 p.m. or such earlier time or date as the Court may have available.
On March 28, 2011, the Court issued an Order denying Money Market 1 Institutional Dealer's ("MM1") motion to dismiss the First Amended Complaint. DN 132. On October 27, 2011, the Court issued an Order denying DBSI's motion to dismiss the Second Amended Complaint. DN 165. Discovery against all Defendants had been stayed pending the Court's October 27, 2011 Order. On November 8, 2011, LP and DBSI held a Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(f) conference to discuss a proposed litigation schedule and other discovery related matters. Counsel for MM1 informed both LP and DBSI that MM1 would not participate in the Rule 26(f) conference, that MM1 will not voluntarily participate in discovery, and that counsel for MM1 would soon file a motion for withdrawal.
LP and DBSI now jointly request that the Court schedule a CMC on December 2, 2011 at 3:00 p.m. or at or such earlier time or date as the Court may have available.
Respectfully submitted,
Mark C. Hansen
