Estimate of trial length (in days)

This case will be tried to a jury.
Counsel may not modify these dates without leave of court. The parties shall comply with
the Court’s standing orders, which are available at cand.uscourts.gov/jstorders.
Unless the Court orders otherwise, all filing and service deadlines occur at 5:00 p.m. on the
stated date.
At the parties’ request, the Court will refer them to the Court’s mediation program, and
order them to complete mediation within 90 days of the date of this order.
The parties must take all necessary steps to conduct discovery, compel discovery, hire
counsel, retain experts, and manage their calendars so that they can complete discovery in a timely
manner and appear at trial on the noticed and scheduled dates. All counsel must arrange their
calendars to accommodate these dates, or arrange to substitute or associate in counsel who can.
Trial dates set by this Court should be regarded as firm. Requests for continuance are
disfavored. The Court will not consider any event subsequently scheduled by a party, partycontrolled witness, expert or attorney that conflicts with the above trial date as good cause to grant
a continuance. The Court will not consider the pendency of settlement discussions as good cause
to grant a continuance.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
