No. C-07-01700 RMW ORDER GRANTING DEFENDANT'S MOTION FOR AN EXPEDITED FURTHER CASE MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE [Re Docket No. 87]

confer must be in person, and lead counsel for both parties must review and approve the proposed discovery plan submitted. Any not yet due discovery responses and any scheduled depositions will be deferred pending the upcoming case management conference.
