KLARQUIST SPARKMAN, LLP
121 S.W. Salmon Street, Suite 1600
Portland, OR 97204
Tel: [phone]; Fax: [phone]

1

The Court’s Order of April 29, 2011 Granting Severance and Consolidating Cases [Dkt.

2

No. 229] granted defendants’ motions for severance but consolidated the eleven actions for all

3

pretrial proceedings and for trial. The Court also ordered that the current scheduling order in this

4

case (C10-1385-MJP, Dkt. No. 178) will govern all eleven actions, but instructed the parties to

5

meet and confer and file a joint status report as to what dates in the current scheduling order need

6

to be amended or altered. The parties have conferred and agreed that certain dates should be

7

adjusted, and have set forth proposed amendments to the existing scheduling order.

8

There are two categories of adjustments proposed.

9

First, the date for opening expert reports falls on the Monday after the Thanksgiving

10

holiday. In view of the holiday, the parties request a one week adjustment of that date, as well as

11

adjustments to the related expert dates. These adjustments do not change any other dates.

12

Second, the Order of April 29, 2011, consolidated the actions for all purposes including

13

trial, but noted that “[t]he Court does not make any binding determination as to how it will run

14

the trials in this matter. That issue will be decided later.” Defendants each continue to object to

15

consolidation for trial, and Interval continues to believe that consolidation for trial is appropriate.

16

The parties propose that issues relating to the structure of trial proceedings be addressed

17

at the scheduled January 13, 2012 Status Conference, but the parties disagree on whether the

18

existing trial dates should remain on the calendar in the interim.

19

Interval requests that all dates in the Scheduling Order, including the trial dates, remain in

20

effect to preserve the trials on the Court’s docket, which are currently scheduled in June and July

21

2012. Removing the trial dates from the calendar would significantly increase the risk of

22

delaying the trials, which would likely lead to increased costs for the parties and more work for

23

the Court. The parties would meet and confer in advance of the January 13, 2012 Status

24

Conference and submit a joint status report with suggested trial procedures by January 6, 2012.

25
26

Defendants request that the current dates for the for the Pretrial Order, the Pretrial
Conferences, Trial Briefs, Voir Dire Questions, Proposed Jury Instructions, and Trial Exhibit
