The statement lists the model jury instructions each party requests, but does not provide the actual

16

bring a courtesy copy of the instructions to court on August 26; and to e-mail the set in Microsoft

18

the instructions to which the parties agree, in the order they are to be read to the jury, followed by

19

the instructions proposed by plaintiff and objected to by defendant, followed by the instructions

20

proposed only by defendant and objected to by plaintiff. The proposed instructions must be in

21

final form, must use the precise words appropriate to the case, and must not include blanks. As set

22

forth in the Court’s standing order for Civil Jury Trials, the parties must clearly indicate any

23

modifications to pattern instructions.
The parties also dispute whether certain witnesses were disclose in the parties’ initial

24
25

disclosures or in response to discovery requests. See, e.g., ECF No. 90 at 19-20. The parties are

ordered to bring copies of their initial disclosures, any supplemental disclosures, any relevant
