San Francisco, CA 94102
Dear Judge Spero:
There is a Case Management Conference in the above-captioned matter scheduled for November 18, 2011 at 1:30 p.m. before you. Bath & Body Works, LLC's counsel of record, Douglas J. Farmer, will appear at the conference in person. Additionally, and not in lieu of Mr. Farmer's in-person appearance, Bath & Body Works requests that its additional counsel, Andrew C. Smith ("Smith"), John L. Landolfi ("Landolfi") and Steven R. Miller ("Miller") of the Columbus, Ohio office of the law firm of Vorys, Sater, Seymour and Pease be given leave to attend the conference by telephone. Smith and Landolfi were admitted to the bar of this Court pro hac vice per order of this Court on November 9, 2011 (Docket Nos. 33-34). Miller is also an attorney in the same office as Smith and Landolfi. Because they are located in Columbus, Ohio, Smith, Landolfi, and Miller will be unable to attend the conference in person. Bath & Body Works, LLC therefore requests that Smith, Landolfi and Miller be granted permission to make a telephone appearance at the hearing. The Court may contact them directly by dialing Smith's office at 614-464-5434. If this request is granted, Smith, Landolfi and Miller will be on standby to receive the Court's call.
Respectfully submitted,
OGLETREE, DEAKINS, NASH, SMOAK
