IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLORADO
Magistrate Judge Boyd N. Boland
Civil Action No. 12-cv-00821-RM-BNB
FRANCES RILEY,
Plaintiff,
v.
JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A.,
MORTGAGE ELECTRONIC REGISTRATION SYSTEMS, INC.,
LAW OFFICES OF ROBERT J. HOPP & ASSOCIATES, LLC,
ROBERT J. HOPP, and
SALLY ZEMAN,
Defendants.
______________________________________________________________________________
ORDER
______________________________________________________________________________
The parties appeared this morning for a final pretrial conference. The proposed final
pretrial order was prepared and submitted electronically by defense counsel, as I directed, but the
plaintiff, who is proceeding pro se, failed to provide her input into that document. In addition,
my recommendation that summary judgment be granted in part and denied in part, and the
defendant’s objection to that recommendation, remain pending before the district judge.
Where, as here, the plaintiff is proceeding pro se and a recommendation is pending which
may materially impact the nature of the case going forward, judicial economy and preservation
of the parties’ assets dictate that the supplemental final pretrial conference await the
determination of the district judge.
IT IS ORDERED:
(1)

The proposed final pretrial order is REFUSED;

(2)

A supplemental final pretrial conference will be set after the district judge rules

on the pending recommendation and objection; and
(3)

The defendant shall file a status report within ten days of the order of the district

judge resolving the recommendation and objection detailing the ruling of the district judge and
its effect on the case going forward, and discussing any additional pretrial matters to be
scheduled.
Dated May 6, 2014.
BY THE COURT:
s/ Boyd N. Boland
United States Magistrate Judge
