IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLORADO
Civil Action No. 11-cv-02154-WJM-MEH
MARIE T. GIANNANGELI,
Plaintiff,
v.
TARGET NATIONAL BANK, N.A.,
Defendant.

MINUTE ORDER
Entered by Michael E. Hegarty, United States Magistrate Judge, on October 31, 2011.
The Stipulated Motion to Reschedule Status Conference [filed October 29, 2011; docket #12]
is granted in part and denied in part. Through their motion, the parties essentially seek an
indefinite stay of the proceedings in this matter, but they have not provided the Court sufficient
cause with which to impose such stay. See Chavez v. Young Am. Ins. Co., No. 06-2419, 2007 WL
683973, *2 (D. Colo. Mar. 2, 2007) (a stay of all discovery is generally disfavored in this District);
see also String Cheese Incident, LLC v. Stylus Shows, Inc., 2006 WL 894955 *3 (D. Colo. March
30, 2006) (unpublished) (a determination whether to stay proceedings generally requires
consideration of a number of factors). Therefore, the Court will not simply vacate the Scheduling
Conference and hold this matter in abeyance indefinitely.
However, to facilitate the parties’ efforts to prepare and file a proposed Scheduling Order
consistent with this Court’s rules, the Court will vacate the Scheduling Conference scheduled for
November 3, 2011 and reschedule the conference to December 2, 2011 at 9:45 a.m. All other
aspects of this Court’s August 24, 2011 order remain in effect.
