Case No. 2:17-cv-01548-JAD-NJK

ORDER

16

Pending before the Court is the parties’ discovery plan, Docket No. 7, which is hereby DENIED.

17

First, the discovery plan provides a discovery period of 189 days, rather than 180 days. Second, the

18

discovery plan states that “the parties would like to have Judge Koppe serve as the trial judge rather than

19

a magistrate [judge].” Id. at 4-5. The Court is unclear as to the parties’ intent. The parties shall clearly

20

indicate whether they consent to the undersigned magistrate judge acting as the trial judge in this case,

21

or whether they would like United States District Judge Jennifer A. Dorsey to remain as the trial judge

22

in the ordinary course.

23

A renewed discovery plan addressing these issues shall be filed by August 3, 2017.

24

IT IS SO ORDERED.
