Plaintiff,
ORDER
vs.
JOSHUA KEADLE,
Defendant.
This matter is before the Court on the plaintiff's motion for default
judgment (filing 243) with respect to the remaining defendant, Joshua
Keadle. The Court finds that Keadle has failed to plead or otherwise defend,
and that entry of default is appropriate, but an evidentiary hearing will be
necessary to determine the amount of damages.
IT IS ORDERED:
1.

The jury trial set to begin on August 24, 2015, is cancelled.

2.

The Clerk of the Court is directed to enter Keadle's default.

3.

A telephonic status conference is scheduled to be held
before the undersigned judge at 10:30 a.m. on October 19,
2015, regarding the progression of the plaintiff's state-court
proceedings and any interlocutory appeal that the plaintiff
may pursue.

Dated this 18th day of August, 2015.
BY THE COURT:

John M. Gerrard
United States District Judge
