ORDER

Case No. 1:11-cv-040

On September 3, 2013, at the parties’ request, the court stayed the above-entitled action until
either the North Dakota Supreme Court issued a decision in a state district court case captioned
Stenejhem v. National Audubon Society, Case No. 47-09-C-425, or until July 1, 2014, whichever
occurred first. The North Dakota Supreme Court’s opinion in Case No. 47-09-C-425 was filed on
April 8, 2014.
The final pretrial conference and bench trial in this case are currently set for August 21, 2014,
and September 3, 2014, respectively. However, a conflict has arisen on the court’s calendar for
September 3, 2014; a criminal trial is presently scheduled to commence on September 3 that will
preempt the trial in this case. To address this scheduling issue and otherwise assess the status of this
case, the court finds its necessary to schedule a conference call. Accordingly, the undersigned shall
conduct a status conference with the parties in the above-entitled action on August 15, 2014, at 11:00
a.m. by telephone. The court shall initiate the conference call.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
Dated this 12th day of August, 2014.
/s/ Charles S. Miller, Jr.
Charles S. Miller, Jr., Magistrate Judge
United States District Court
