This older case is in the ditch. Trial is scheduled for 23 June 2014 firstout in Batesville. Defendant Huffman is pro se. His recent mail from the
Court is being returned as undeliverable. № 62 & 63. Huffman has not made
any of the required pretrial filings. Plaintiff Kemp has not met any of the
Court’s pretrial deadlines either. № 60 at 1. Last week, the Court entered a
reminder Order about all these filings. № 61. Kemp has still not proposed
jury instructions or listed witnesses and exhibits in a pretrial information
sheet. The case cannot be tried on June 23rd in these circumstances. The Final
Scheduling Order, № 60, is suspended; and the trial is cancelled. The Court
will hold a status conference on Thursday, 19 June 2014 at 1:30 p.m. in
Courtroom B-155 of the Richard Sheppard Arnold Courthouse, 500 West

Capitol Avenue, Little Rock, Arkansas, 72201.

Kemp, his lawyer, and

Huffman must attend. Between now and then, Kemp, who is represented by
counsel, should attempt to locate a current address and telephone number for
Huffman. As soon as Kemp gets any contact information, he must notify the
Court with a filing under seal. Kemp must also have Huffman personally
served—as soon as possible—with a copy of this Order.
So Ordered.
