On March 27, 2013, the court vacated the pretrial conference date of March 27, 2013,

20

and vacated all dates associated with the trial pending review and consideration of the issue

21

of Defendants’ stated intention to present evidence challenging Plaintiff’s mental competence

22

to present evidence at trial. The court set a status conference for further consideration of the

23

issue for Tuesday, May 28, 2013 at 1:30 p.m. The court also stated that either or both parties

24

could attend the status conference telephonically on any day following May 28. Plaintiff has

25

requested to appear telephonically. Because Tuesday, May 28, 2013, is the day the court will

26

hear its law and motion calendar (because Monday is a federal holiday), the court will not be

27

available to hold any appearances by telephone. On the following day, Wednesday, May 29,

28

2013, the court is available for telephonic appearances. The court will therefore reschedule
the status conference currently scheduled for Tuesday, May 28, 2013, to Wednesday, May 29,

1

2013, at 10:30 a.m. In the event either party is unable to attend, either in person or

2

telephonically, that party shall so inform the court and the opposing party at the earliest

3

possible opportunity and arrange a mutually agreeable, subsequent time and date.

5

THEREFORE, it is hereby ORDERED that the status conference currently set for

6

Tuesday, May 28, 2013, is hereby MOVED to Wednesday, May 29, 2013, at 10:30 a.m.

7

Permission to appear telephonically is GRANTED.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
