No. 3:10-0978
Judge Sharp/Brown
Jury Demand

O R D E R
A telephone conference was held with the parties at their
request in this matter to discuss scheduling in reference to the
Court’s earlier order (Docket Entry 100). After discussion with the
parties the in-court conference presently set for March 31, 2014
(Docket Entry 93) is CANCELED. The parties may have until May 23,
2014, to complete discovery and to submit a protocol for the audit
that is contemplated in this matter. The Magistrate Judge expects
the parties to have selected an auditor by this date.
The parties were unsure how long it would take an auditor
to complete the audit that they will agree on. Plaintiffs think
that the data will be complicated.
After discussion with the parties and consulting with
Judge

Sharp’s

courtroom

deputy,

this

case

which

the

parties

estimate will take five days to try with a jury, is set for trial
before Judge Sharp on March 31, 2015. Judge Sharp will conduct the
final pretrial conference on March 16, 2015, at 2:00 p.m. Judge

Sharp will issue a separate order concerning his requirements for
the final pretrial conference and trial at a later date.
A telephone conference with the parties is set for June
12, 2014, at 10:00 a.m. to discuss the estimated length of the
audit and to set intermediate dates for any additional motion
practice in preparation for the trial.

To participate in the

conference call, parties will call 615-695-2851 at the scheduled
time.
It is so ORDERED.
