_____________________________________/
The district court referred a discovery letter to the undersigned. (See ECF No.40.) The court will

review it and evaluate whether further proceedings are necessary, including any further briefing or

18

argument. Going forward, the parties must comply with the undersigned’s standing order (attached).

19

The dispute procedures in it require, among other things, that if a meet-and-confer by other means

20

does not resolve the parties’ dispute, lead counsel for the parties must meet and confer in person (if

21

counsel are local) and then submit a joint-letter brief with information about any unresolved

22

disputes. If counsel cannot navigate the filing of a joint letter brief, they may schedule a short case

23

management conference call through courtroom deputy Lashanda Scott. The letter brief must be

24

filed under the Civil Events category of “Motions and Related Filings > Motions – General >

25
