Conference

On July 22, 2009 the Court issued its Scheduling and Case Management Order [15], which set forth a schedule of pretrial hearing dates and deadlines, in particular the date by which pretrial documents must be lodged/filed. [These dates were most recently modified in the orders at docket entry [23] and [24]. The Court's Scheduling and Case Management Order includes the following caveat: "If counsel fail to file the required Pre-Trial documents or fail to appear at the Pre-Trial Conference and such failure is not otherwise satisfactorily explained to the Court: (a) the cause shall stand dismissed for failure to prosecute if such failure occurs on the part of the plaintiff; (b) default judgment shall be entered if such failure occurs on the part of the defendant; or (c) the Court may take such action as it deems appropriate."
