This matter is before the Court on the Rule 26(f) Report (Filing No. 11) prepared, filed, and signed by only counsel for Defendant. Defense counsel represents that he contacted Plaintiff’s counsel prior to submitted the report, but received no response. Pursuant to this Court’s scheduling letter (Filing No. 8) filed on September 27, 2017, the parties were directed to meet and confer and provide the Court with a report of their conference on or before October 27, 2017, pursuant to Rule 26(f) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.
