ORDER VACATING MID-DISCOVERY STATUS
CONFERENCE; ORDER REQUIRING FURTHER
SCHEDULING REPORT
16
17
The Court has reviewed the joint mid discovery status report. (Doc. 18) The report indicates
18
that “Plaintiffs Robert Cox, Eric Coontz, and Brian Martinez (collectively “Plaintiffs”)” no longer
19
seeks to pursue this case on behalf of a class or a collection. Id. at 3. The report continues, “Plaintiffs
20
have elected not to pursue conditional or class certification and intend to move forward on behalf of the
21
above named individual.” Id. Thus, it appears the action will proceed only as to Mr. Cox. Therefore,
22
the Court ORDERS:
23
24
1.
No later than May 4, 2018, the parties SHALL file a joint, further scheduling report
proposing deadlines for dispositive motions, the pretrial conference and the trial.
25
2.
In light of the abandonment of the class and collective actions, the class certification
26
deadlines as VACATED;
