An April 21 order required the parties to meet-and-confer in person in this district in a
15
good faith effort to fully resolve their discovery dispute (Dkt. No. 41). On April 27, the parties
16
filed a stipulation to vacate the April 21 order because “the open issues with [Becton Dickinson
17
and Company’s] disclosures have been resolved” (Dkt. No. 42). Accordingly, the parties seek
18
to be relieved from the order to meet-and-confer in person and to file a joint status statement by
19
April 30.
20
This order hereby RELIEVES the parties of the requirement to meet-and-confer in person
21
regarding the letter, dated April 16, 2015, and the requirement to file a joint status statement by
22
April 30. Going forward, please remember that both sides must meet-and-confer in person or
23
telephonically in a good faith effort to resolve the discovery dispute before filing a three-page
24
discovery letter. The discovery letter, dated April 16, 2015, is hereby DENIED AS MOOT.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
