REQUEST FOR RESPONSE RE
HEARING ON CROSS-MOTIONS
FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT

/

18

Although the order setting a schedule for the upcoming cross-motions for summary

19

judgment did not specify a hearing date, defense counsel should have immediately recognized

20

that the hearing on any motions would be scheduled for December 1, rather than waiting nearly

21

one month to raise the issue. The Court is inclined to schedule a specially-set hearing on the

22

morning of November 30 and is inclined against holding a hearing on December 15, which

23

would put too much pressure on the trial date. By WEDNESDAY NOVEMBER 9 AT NOON,

24

defense counsel shall state the nature of the lead attorney’s travel plans, including when those

25

plans were scheduled.

26

IT IS SO ORDERED.
