On February 16, 2021, by separate opinion & order, the Court resolved the parties' cross-motions for summary judgment and partial summary judgment. 20 Civ. 4185, Dkt. 97. The remaining claims in the above-captioned cases will therefore proceed to trial.
The parties' Joint Pretrial Order is due April 22, 2022. By that date, the parties shall submit a Joint Pretrial Order prepared in accordance with the Court's Individual Rules and Practices governing trials, available at https://nysd.uscourts.gov/hon-paul-engelmayer, and Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(a)(3). Counsel are to be mindful that there are distinct conventions for Joint Pretrial Orders for bench as opposed to jury trials.

The Court schedules a final pretrial telephonic conference for May 11, 2022 at 2 p.m. That conference will be held in Courtroom 1305 at the Thurgood Marshall United States Courthouse, 40 Centre Street, New York, New York 10007-the same courtroom in which trial will be held.
