On October 22, 2018, the Court entered an Order (Docket No. 66) setting a schedule for

15

the filing of Petitioner’s motion for discovery. That Order stated that “[a] further litigation

16

schedule shall be set once the Court rules on petitioner’s discovery motion.” The Court has now

17

denied Petitioner’s First Motion for Discovery (Docket No. 79).

18

Accordingly, it is now time for the Court to set a schedule for further litigation of this matter. To

19

that end, the Court directs the parties to meet and confer regarding the division of Petitioner’s

20

claims, to the extent practicable, into like groupings of claims for focused briefing by the parties.

21

The parties shall file a joint report with proposed claim groupings and a proposed schedule

22

for further briefing on or before April 17, 2020.

See Docket No. 90.
