MARK S. BURKES,

ORDER DENYING PARTIES’
REQUESTS FOR TELEPHONIC
APPEARANCE

Plaintiff,
v.

[Re: Docket Nos. 17, 18]

COUNTY OF MONTEREY,

15

Defendant.
/

16
17

The court previously denied defendant’s request for leave to appear by phone at the

18

December 6, 2011 initial case management conference. Defendant has filed a renewed request

19

for telephonic appearance; and, plaintiff also now requests leave to appear by phone at the

20

conference.

21

The parties’ Joint Case Management Statement indicates that they dispute several basic

22

procedural matters, which the court hopes may be resolved (or at least narrowed) through

23

focused discussion at the conference. Accordingly, both parties’ requests for telephonic

24

appearance are denied. Counsel most knowledgeable about the issues raised in the parties’

25

Joint Case Management Statement shall attend the conference in person.

26
27

SO ORDERED.
