Scheduling Conference Order
On February 9, 2011, counsel for the parties participated in a telephone scheduling
conference with the Magistrate Judge.
The only remaining discovery is defendant’s deposition of plaintiff Alfonso
Gonzalez and any followup discovery. Last week, plaintiff’s counsel received a message
from Mr. Gonzalez’s father that his son was in an accident and had been taken by
helicopter to Miami Valley Hospital. Plaintiff’s counsel contacts Mr. Gonzalez by cell
phone. Mr. Gonzalez’s father left his son’s cell phone number as the means of contacting
him. Plaintiff’s counsel waited several days, then called the cell phone, but it went to voice
mail. The message box was full. Plaintiff’s counsel will write a letter to Mr. Gonzalez and
his father, check with Miami Valley Hospital, and look for other ways to determine Mr.
Gonzalez’s condition and availability for deposition.
Defendant’s counsel will cancel Mr. Gonzalez’s deposition, which had been
scheduled for February 10. It will be promptly rescheduled once Mr. Gonzalez is located.
The existing scheduling order deadlines for completing discovery by February 15
and filing case-dispositive motions by March 31, 2012 is VACATED. Counsel are
DIRECTED to call my office (614.719.3370) on or before February 24, 2012 to schedule
another conference with me to establish NEW deadlines for completing discovery and
filing case-dispositive motions.
