ORDER CANCELLING TRIAL AND
FINAL PRETRIAL CONFERENCE
AND SETTING DISPOSITIVE
MOTIONS DEADLINE

Case No. 1:13-cv-052

On October 6, 2014, the court held a telephonic status conference to discuss what remains
to be resolved in the above-captioned case. Attorneys Robert P. Schuster, Bradley L. Booke, David
S. Maring, and James R. Hoy appeared on plaintiffs’ behalf. Attorney Patrick W. Durick appeared
on defendants’ (the “Hiland Entities”) behalf. Attorney Joel A. Flom appeared on behalf of thirdparty defendant Missouri Basin Well Service, Inc. (“Missouri Basin”).
The parties agreed that as a result of the settlement between plaintiffs and the Hiland Entities
and the issuance of the court’s order granting Third-Party Defendant B&B Heavy Haul’s motion for
summary judgment, the remaining issues will likely be resolved by motion. Accordingly, the Jury
Trial set for January 26, 2015 and the Final Pretrial Conference set for January 13, 2015 are

CANCELLED, and it is ORDERED that the remaining dispositive motions shall be filed within
10 days of Missouri Basin receiving a copy of the settlement documents.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
Dated this 6th day of October, 2014.
/s/ Charles S. Miller, Jr.

United States District Court
