IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF WISCONSIN

THE ESTATE OF TONY ROBINSON, JR., ex rel.
PERSONAL REPRESENTATIVE ANDREA IRWIN,

v.

Plaintiff,

ORDER

THE CITY OF MADISON, WISCONSIN, and
MATTHEW KENNY,

15-cv-502-jdp

Defendants.
The court has reviewed the parties’ pretrial submissions and compiled the attached
drafts of the voir dire questions, introductory jury instructions, and special verdict forms. The
court will revise the drafts in light of discussions at the final pretrial conference.
Also at the final pretrial conference, the court will provide its preliminary rulings on
the parties’ motions in limine. The court will issue a final pretrial conference order after
hearing from the parties.
The court expects that its rulings on the Daubert motions and the motions in limine
will resolve most objections to the parties’ witness and exhibit lists. The court anticipates that
it will referee any remaining disputes later next week.
The court will also take up the trial schedule and format and other trial management
issues, including any raised by the parties.
Entered February 16, 2017.
BY THE COURT:
