THIS MATTER comes before the Court sua sponte.
On November 17, 2016, a magistrate judge granted Plaintiff’s motion, (Doc. No. 154), to
extend the deadline to file dispositive motions until January 13, 2017, but did not alter the trial
date of March 6, 2017. (Doc. No. 155: Order). Plaintiff filed Motions for Summary Judgment on
January 13, 2017. (Doc. Nos. 156, 157). The magistrate judge granted the consent Motion of
Defendant Shiloh Estate, LLC and Intervenors Claggett & Sons and Thaddeus Clagget, (Doc.
No. 158), to extend their response deadline until February 6, 2017. (Doc. No. 159: Order).
Accordingly, the dispositive motions recently became ripe on February 13, 2017, with the filing
of Plaintiff’s Reply. (Doc. No. 167).
IT IS, THEREFORE, ORDERED that the trial of this matter is continued pending
resolution of the dispositive motions.
