This matter is scheduled for an initial case management conference on April 17, 2015.

17

The Court has considered the parties’ joint case management statement, and it HEREBY

18

VACATES the initial case management conference and issues this AMENDED ORDER as

19

follows:

20

1.

Defendants states that they anticipate filing “one or more dispositive motions.”

21

Under this Court’s Standing Orders, “[a]bsent of a showing of good cause, the Court will

22

address only one motion for summary judgment per side.” (Civil Standing Order ¶ 9.) The

23

Court will not permit Defendants to file more than one dispositive motion, without a formal

24

motion seeking such relief.

25

2.

The parties also appear to dispute whether discovery should be phased. The

26

manner in which that dispute should be presented to the Court is by way of a joint letter brief.

27

(See Civil Standing Order ¶ 8.)

28

3.

The parties shall meet and confer regarding the selection and timing of an ADR

process and shall submit a stipulation and proposed order to the Court by May 1, 2015. If the

1

parties are unable to agree on the form or timing, they shall request an ADR phone conference,

2

so that the Court may receive a recommendation from the ADR department.

3

4.

The parties shall appear for a further case management conference on Friday,

4

June 26, 2015 at 11:00 a.m., and shall submit an updated joint case management statement with

5

a proposed schedule by June 19, 2015.

6

IT IS SO ORDERED.
