On March 13, 2018, the Court held an early neutral evaluation conference in the
above-entitled action. Settlement could not be reached in the case.
The Court discussed compliance with rule 26 of the Federal Rules of Civil
Procedure and issues the following orders:
1.

No objections were presented to initial disclosure under Federal Rule of

24

Civil Procedure, rule 26(a)(1)(A-D). The parties are ordered to proceed with the initial

25

disclosure process. Any objections to initial disclosure will be resolved as required by

26

rule 26.

27

2.

The rule 26(f) conference shall be completed on or before April 6, 2018.

28

3.

The initial disclosures pursuant to rule 26(a)(1)(A-D) shall occur on or

2

before April 20, 2018. Any motions addressing disputes related to initial disclosures

3

shall be filed no later than thirty (30) days following the date the disclosures were due.

The 30-day deadline will not be extended without a prior Court order; counsel cannot

5

unilaterally extend the deadline. For example, ongoing meet-and-confer efforts or

6

supplemental disclosures do not extend the deadline. A failure to comply may bar the

7

party from filing a corresponding motion.
