ORDER" AND SETTING TELEPHONE CONFERENCE
On January 13, 2012, Third-Party Defendants filed a motion for a protective order, seeking to prevent Third-Party Plaintiff from taking the trial deposition of John Clinton Hinds, Jr. Counsel for Third-Party Plaintiff has communicated to the court's staff their intention to schedule the deposition for February 6, 2012, so the court will order an expedited response and set a telephone conference to discuss the motion. Accordingly,
IT IS ORDERED that Third-Party Plaintiff shall file a response to Third-Party Defendants' "Motion for Protective Order" [Dkt. # 76] no later than January 24, 2012.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that counsel for the parties shall participate in a telephone conference on January 26, 2012, at 10:30 a.m. The court will place the telephone call. During the conference, counsel should be prepared to discuss the propriety of excluding Hinds's testimony under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 37(c)(1).
