ORDER SETTING PRETRIAL CONFERENCE
Plaintiffs’ Joint Motion to Set Pretrial Conference is this subfile action (Doc. 3388) is
GRANTED. A Pretrial Conference will be held by teleconference on August 24, 2017, at
10:00 a.m. The parties will call the Court’s “meet-me” line at [phone] to participate in
the Pretrial Conference. It is recommended that a reliable long-distance carrier be used to ensure
sound quality. This line can only accommodate up to five telephone lines, including the
Court’s. If the parties anticipate that they will exceed this capacity, they must contact the
Court immediately so that alternative arrangements may be made.

Counsel should be prepared to discuss discovery needs and scheduling, all claims and
defenses, initial disclosures, and the timing of expert disclosures and reports under Federal Rule
of Civil Procedure 26(a)(2). Counsel should also be prepared to discuss the use of scientific
evidence and whether a Daubert hearing is needed.1
