ORDER
On August 30, 2006, Insurance Ventures, Inc. ("IV") filed an objection to the Amended Final Pretrial Order ("AFPO").
First, IV objects because the "continuance of the trial" sought by Defendants appearing at the pretrial conference held August 22, 2006, was denied. The AFPO discusses the continuance request in section XIV (B). That section is stricken since it is unclear whether the continuance standard mentioned in that section is the correct standard. But the continuance motion is denied because it has not been made under applicable local rules, which are intended to provide a framework for a fair and orderly resolution of disputes.
The continuance matter was also argued in the parties' Amended Joint Status Report filed August 10, 2006, but no authority was cited by either party. Further, IV's objection appears to include argument it did not make at the August 22 pretrial conference.
Second, IV requests clarification of the issues preserved in sections III (B)(9)-(10) of the AFPO, but has not shown this is necessary.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
