Case No. 4:21-CV-01130-AGF

MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
This matter is before the Court upon its review of the record. Plaintiff Jane Doe
alleges a number of claims against Defendants Kirkwood R-7 School District
(“Kirkwood”) and John Collier, a former employee of Kirkwood, related to an alleged
sexual assault that occurred in the 1980-81 school year. (Doc. No. 1-1). However,
Collier died in 2006. Plaintiff then moved the Court to substitute Collier’s successors, a
personal representative of his estate, or a Defendant ad litem. The Court denied the
motion and set a Rule 16 Scheduling Conference for November 29, 2021. (Doc. Nos. 15,
16). Thereafter, Plaintiff filed a second motion to appoint a Defendant ad litem for
Collier. (Doc. No. 18).
In light of the pending motion, the Court will vacate the Rule 16 Conference and
reschedule the conference after it rules on Plaintiff’s motion.
Accordingly,

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Rule 16 Conference set for November 29,
2021 is VACATED. The Conference will be rescheduled after the Court rules on
Plaintiff’s pending motion to appoint a defendant ad litem.
