Case No. 3:12-0610
Judge Campbell/Brown
Jury Demand

O R D E R
The parties have filed a joint motion to alter or amend
the scheduling order, pointing out that a ruling had not been made
on certain documents submitted for in camera review (Docket Entry
22). The Magistrate Judge has reviewed his order concerning this
matter (Docket Entry 21). The order provided that if the parties
were unable to resolve the discovery dispute that they should,
within 14 days, provide the Magistrate Judge in camera the pages
that remained in dispute, along with the privilege log items which
the Plaintiff wished to further contest.
Unfortunately,

this

material

was

submitted

to

the

Magistrate Judge’s chambers in an email in August, rather than
being filed with the Clerk under seal. Although the email was sent
to the Magistrate Judge’s chambers on August 13, 2013, for some
reason it was not listed on the docket nor did it make it to the
Magistrate Judge’s desk. Thus, the Magistrate Judge was under the
incorrect belief that the parties had, in fact, resolved the
matter.

The present motion is the first notice the Magistrate
Judge had that the parties were waiting on something from him.
This is a case where a motion to ascertain status would
have brought this problem to a head earlier. The Magistrate Judge
will attempt to work on this matter and have a resolution by
Monday, if possible.
The Clerk will file the email from Mr. Ferrell as a
sealed document with access restricted to the court only. This
matter is presently set for trial on July 15, 2014 (Docket Entry
19).
A telephone conference with Magistrate Judge Brown to
discuss dates for a revised scheduling order consistent with this
trial

date

is

set

for

December

12,

2013,

at

2:30

p.m.

To

participate in the conference call, parties will call 615-695-2851
at the scheduled time.
The motion to establish these dates is therefore GRANTED.
It is so ORDERED.
