Thereafter, if there is any change in the

information, the party shall file and serve a supplemental statement within a reasonable time after such change occurs. 3. In appropriate cases, and after receiving the

parties' Joint Status Report, the court may issue a Status (Pretrial Scheduling) Order without requiring a status conference. Unless the parties have received such an order prior

to the status conference, the parties are required to attend the status conference as scheduled. Failure of counsel or of a
