CORRECTIONS CORPORATION OF
AMERICA, et al.,

(Doc. 22)

Judge:
Hon. Sheila K. Oberto
Defendants. Trial Date:

Action Filed: October 13, 2016

22

Under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 16(e) and Local Rules 143 and 282, the parties,

23

through their respective counsel of record, request that the Court advance the date of the Pretrial

24

Conference to September 25, 2017, at 2 p.m. The Pretrial Conference was recently moved to

25

October 4, 2017 (see ECF No. 21), a date on which that parties’ attorneys are not available—

26

Plaintiff’s attorney will be in trial, and defense counsel will be out of the state. Good cause

27

therefore exists to advance the Pretrial Conference to September 25. (The parties have contacted

28

the Courtroom Deputy to confirm this date is available on the Court’s calendar.) The parties

agree to file the joint pretrial statement seven days before September 25, as required under Local

2

Rule 281(a)(2).

3

The parties further request that they be permitted to appear telephonically at the Pretrial

4

Conference. Plaintiff’s counsel is located in Los Angeles, and Defendants’ attorney is in

5

Sacramento. A telephonic appearance will save time and resources, and the parties’ attorneys

6

will be prepared to discuss all the required issues for trial regardless of their manner of

7

appearance at the hearing.
