3. All hearing dates presently scheduled are VACATED. However, existing briefing schedules for motions remain unchanged.  Motions must be RENOTICED for hearing before Judge Lee by the moving party for a date consistent with the Court’s law and motion calendar, but the renoticing of the hearing does not affect the prior briefing schedule.

4. Deadlines for ADR compliance and discovery cutoffs remain unchanged.

5. All pretrial conference and trial dates currently set for after December 4, 2024, and all other deadlines associated with the case, will remain in place unless otherwise ordered.

6. All pretrial conference and trial dates scheduled on or before December 4, 2024, are vacated. Other pretrial deadlines (eg., motions in limine, pretrial statements, proposed joint trial exhibits, etc.) will remain in place.  The Court will notify the parties when a status conference will be held to schedule a new pretrial conference and trial dates for affected cases.

7. Matters currently referred to a Magistrate Judge will remain before that Magistrate Judge absent further notice.

8. On or before September 16, 2024, the parties shall file a Joint Case Management Statement (separate statements are appropriate if either party is proceeding without counsel). The statement should not exceed ten pages in length and should address all issues outlines in the Standing Order for All Judges of the Northern District. the approved form for such statements can be accessed here:

      a. The parties are not required to complete a section if inapplicable. As number 20, the statement shall provide the following information: (i) a list or description of each party; (ii) a summary of all claims, counter-claims, cross-claims, or third party claims and the date the complaint and cross-complaint(s) were filed; and (iii) a brief procedural history of the case (chart format welcomed) including, but not limited to, any ADR proceedings or settlement conferences that have been scheduled or concluded and any appellate proceedings that are pending or concluded.

      b. If the parties believe that an immediate case management conference is needed, the parties shall explain why and identify the urgent matters that require attention. If there is no immediate need, a case management conference will be scheduled or reset pursuant to Paragraph 2 of this Order as needed.

9. The Joint Case Management Statement will not constitute a motion to extend or modify dates. If emergency relief is needed to modify a deadline, and the deadline is not of the type that can be modified via stipulation of the parties without a court order, the requesting party or parties shall additionally file a motion or stipulation for such relief in compliance with Local Rule 6.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
