(together “Defendants” or “Diageo”) (together with Plaintiffs, the “Parties”) submit this joint 13 letter regarding the trial schedule in this matter. 14 A four-day jury trial of this case is currently scheduled to begin on December 16, 2013. 15 Due to a potential conflict in the Court’s schedule, the Court proposed rescheduling the trial to 16 February 3, 2014 or March 3, 2014 [Dkt. 85]. 17 The Parties have met and conferred by phone regarding this scheduling issue and have 18 reached the following conclusions: (1) the Parties believe the trial will likely require six to seven 19 days (as opposed to the initial estimate of four days), including the jury selection process; and (2) 20 the Parties are available for trial from March 3, 2014 to March 12, 2014. The Parties also believe 21 that moving the trial to next March would better facilitate a six- or seven-day trial because the 22 current December trial schedule may be interrupted by the Christmas holiday, which would 23 impose an undesired mid-trial break on the Court, the jurors, and the Parties. 24 As such, the Parties respectfully request that the Court adjourn the trial to start on March 25 3, 2014 and that all remaining pre-trial deadlines, including the deadline for the joint pretrial 26 conference statement and other pretrial materials, and the date of the final pretrial conference, all 27 identified in the Parties’ Updated Joint Case Management Statement filed September 19, 2013 28 JOINT STATEMENT REGARDING TRIAL SCHEDULE 1 [Dkt. 84], be postponed accordingly. 2 3 Dated: October 1, 2013 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 /s/ Peter J.
