ORDER

THIS MATTER is before the Court sua sponte. The Court notes that the parties’
Certification and Report of F.R.C.P. 26(f) Conference and Proposed Discovery Plan, (Doc. No.
4), was filed on March 15, 2013. The Certification states that the parties’ Rule 26(f) conference
was held on March 8, 2013, which is seven (7) days before the Certification was filed. This
Court’s Initial Scheduling Order [Entered pursuant to the Standing Order Governing Civil Case
Management Before the Honorable Frank D. Whitney, Misc. No. 3:07-MC-47 (Doc. No. 2)]
makes clear that the Certification is due “[w]ithin five (5) calendar days after the IAC[.]” (Misc.
No. 3:07-MC-47 (Doc. No. 2-5, p. 8)) (emphasis in original). Accordingly, the parties are
hereby WARNED that strict compliance with this Court’s orders is expected as this case moves
forward.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
