Case No.: 1:12-cv-0554 - JLT
ORDER SETTING BRIEFING SCHEDULE ON
DEFENDANT’S MOTION TO STRIKE
PLAINTIFF’S EXPERT WITNESS DESIGNATION
(Doc. 84)

Plaintiff Wilson Gorrell identified Dr. David Graham as an expert witness on August 26, 2013.

18

(Doc. 81). Defendants Thomas Sneath, Hasmukh Shah, and National Toxicology Laboratories, Inc.

19

filed a motion to strike Plaintiff’s expert designation, and to preclude Plaintiff from using any evidence

20

from Dr. Graham on August 27, 2013. (Doc. 82). However, Defendants’ motion to strike has not been

21

set for hearing, and it is necessary for the Court to set a briefing schedule.

22

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED:

23

1.

Plaintiff SHALL file an opposition to the motion no later than September 20, 2013; and

24

2.

Any brief in reply SHALL be filed no later than September 27, 2013. \
