CIVIL 14-00448 LEK-BMK

ORDER ADOPTING RECOMMENDATION TO DISTRICT COURT TO
WITHDRAW REFERENCE IN ORDER TO SCHEDULE AND CONDUCT JURY TRIAL
On October 6, 2014, United States Bankruptcy Judge
Robert J. Faris issued a Recommendation to District Court to
Withdraw Reference to Conduct Jury Trial (“Recommendation”), in
which he recommended that the district court withdraw the
reference for this adversary proceeding for the limited purposes
of opening a civil case and setting a date for a jury trial.
[Dkt. no. 1-1.]

Judge Faris also recommended that the district

court leave the proceeding in the bankruptcy court for all other
purposes until sixty days prior to the trial date to facilitate
the prompt resolution of this matter and to allow the bankruptcy
court to set meaningful deadlines for the completion of all
pretrial matters.

[Id. at 2.]

Having considered Judge Faris’s Recommendation and good
cause appearing therefore, this Court HEREBY WITHDRAWS the
reference as detailed above.

A Scheduling Conference to set a

trial date and deadlines for trial-related submissions shall be
held before United States Magistrate Judge Barry M. Kurren on
Tuesday, November 4, 2014, at 9:30 a.m.

Judge Faris shall retain

jurisdiction over the adversary proceeding for all other purposes
until sixty days prior to the trial date to facilitate the prompt
resolution of this matter and to set meaningful deadlines for the
completion of all pretrial matters.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
DATED AT HONOLULU, HAWAII, October 8, 2014.
