DESCRIPTION OF SUBSEQUENT CASE DEVELOPMENTS
1.

The following progress or changes have occurred since the last case

management statement filed by the parties:
The parties remain optimistic that this case may be resolved for the remaining two
plaintiffs without the need for further judicial intervention.
As noted previously, Mr. Knight has been reinstated into the Navy. Mr. Almy has

12

submitted all of the paperwork for reaccession requested by the Air Force. A decision on Mr.

13

Almy’s reaccession application is in process. Mr. Loverde must complete the final steps in the

14

reaccession process, which will require him to submit additional paperwork to the Air Force.

15

After such steps are completed, a decision will be made on Mr. Loverde’s application. The

16

parties remain hopeful that the process as to Plaintiff Almy and Plaintiff Loverde will soon be

17

completed.

2.

The parties jointly request the Court to make the following Supplemental

Case Management Order:

20

Another Case Management Conference shall be set for May 17, 2012 at 10:00 a.m.

21

In the interim, the parties shall appear telephonically at the Case Management Conference

22

on March 22, 2012, to answer any further questions the Court may have regarding the status of

23

this case.

24

In the event the Court feels that a telephonic hearing on March 22, 2012, is not necessary,

25

both parties are amenable to the Court postponing the CMC until May 17, 2012, or such date as is

26

convenient for the Court.
