February 13, 2017. In the Long case, 15-cv-81, the court is willing to let the parties
tread water until the court rules on the dismissal motion in Lewis. The parties should
expect the Long case to be tried on February 13, 2017, either jointly with the Lewis
case or by itself, depending on how the court decides the pending dismissal motion.
After the court enters its decision on dismissal, the court will hold a telephonic
scheduling conference to set the interstitial dates leading to trial. Signed by
