A case management conference was held November 12, 2009. Following a discussion of the issues, a Journal Entry was issued on November 23, 2009, directing Plaintiff to provide additional information to Defendant by December 14, 2009. Defendant's representative filed a report with the court on January 21, 2010, stating that Plaintiff had not provided the requested information and that Plaintiff's representative had reported that Plaintiff was unable to provide any additional information.
On February 25, 2010, another Journal Entry was issued, stating that, as of that date, the court had not received any further communication from Plaintiff's representative regarding this case.
