Finny v. New York Liquidation Bureau

Filing 19

ORDER: It is hereby ORDERED that the June 12, 2024, initial pretrial conference is CANCELED. If the parties believe that a conference would nevertheless be useful, they should inform the Court immediately so the conference can be reinstated. It is further ORDERED that the parties shall resubmit their case management plan and scheduling order with the proper signatures on the last page by June 4, 2024. The case management plan and scheduling order subsequently will issue separately. The parties' attention is directed to the provisions for periodic status letters, and the need for a pre-motion letter to avoid cancellation of the final conference and setting of a trial date. It is further ORDERED that this case shall not participate in the Southern District of New York's Pilot Discovery Protocols for Counseled Employment Cases. It is further ORDERED that, if Defendant seeks to file a motion to dismiss, it shall file a pre-motion letter pursuant to Individual Rules III.A.1 and III.C.2. It is further ORDERED, regarding settlement discussions, the request for a referral to a settlement conference is GRANTED. The referral will issue in a separate order. The parties should be aware that the Court does not extend the deadlines for fact and expert discovery absent compelling circumstances. (Signed by Judge Lorna G. Schofield on 6/3/2024) (ks)
