ORDER
/

15

On October 25, 2012, the court entered a pretrial order which, among other

16
17

things, gave the parties twenty one days to file amended witness lists, and scheduled trial before

18

Magistrate Judge Hollows on March 11, 2013. See Doc. No. 63. The court’s October 25, 2012

19

pretrial order directed that any objections to the pretrial order were to be filed within fourteen

20

days after the pretrial order was filed. See id. at 12.
On November 14, 2012, plaintiff filed a motion seeking an extension of time to

21
22

file objections to the October 25, 2012 order. See Doc. No. 65. Plaintiff appears to seek

23

additional time through December 12, 2012 both to comply with the pretrial order and to object

24

to it. See id. at 2.
On November 19, 2012, this action was reassigned to the undersigned. See Doc.

No. 66.
