C/A No. 0:18-1417-CMC-PJG

ORDER

Plaintiff filed this civil action in May 2018. This matter is before the court pursuant to 28
U.S.C. § 636(b) and Local Civil Rule 73.02(B)(2) (D.S.C.). On September 4, 2020, the court
entered a Scheduling Order setting a December 3, 2020 deadline for Defendant Berry to file a
dispositive motion. (ECF No. 324.) As of the date of this order, neither Defendant Berry nor the
plaintiff has filed a potentially dispositive motion regarding the merits of this case. The parties
are directed to inform the court in writing of the status of this case on or before December 11,
2020 and advise the court as to whether the case is ready for trial as to the claims against Defendant
Berry. If any party intends to seek leave for an extension in which to file a dispositive motion after
the expiration of the court’s deadline as ordered, it must establish the requisite showings in
accordance with the applicable Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and the Local Civil Rules of this
court.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
December 4, 2020
Columbia, South Carolina
