ORDER: IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the parties must be available for trial on Friday, June 3, 2022 from 9:30 A.M.; Monday, June 6, 2022 from 1:30 P.M.; and thereafter at 9:30 A.M. each day until the trial is completed. Chambers will inform the partie s via email tomorrow afternoon whether trial will commence on Friday, June 3, 2022 at 9:30 A.M. or whether it will commence on Monday, June 6, 2022 at 1:30 P.M. With respect to Monday, June 6, 2022, the Court anticipates that its prior hearing wil l have concluded by 1:30 P.M., but the start time of this trial on Monday will ultimately be determined by how long that hearing lasts.
