NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

SAN JOSE DIVISION

MICHAEL COMMISKEY,

Plaintiff,

v.

EQUIFAX, INC., et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 16-CV-01497-LHK 

ORDER DIRECTING PARTIES TO 

FILE UPDATED JOINT CASE 

MANAGEMENT STATEMENT

On June 15, 2016, Defendants SunTrust Mortgage, Inc. (“SunTrust”); Homeward 

Residential, Inc. (“Homeward”); Wells Fargo, N.A. (“Wells Fargo”); and Equifax, Inc. 

(“Equifax”) filed a case management statement in advance of the June 22, 2016 initial case 

management conference. ECF No. 45. The statement, however, fails to comply with Civil Local 

Rule 16-9, the rule governing the filing of joint case management statements. 

Specifically, the case management statement at issue was filed unilaterally, without

participation from Plaintiff or from the remaining Defendants in this action—PNC Bank, National 

Association (“PNC”) and Pacific Credit Services, Inc. (“PCS”). From the Court’s review of the 

record, a summons was issued as to all Defendants on March 29, 2016, ECF No. 5, but it appears 

that neither PNC nor PCS have yet been served.

Defendants’ case management statement also fails to specify any proposed dates for fact 

discovery, expert discovery, the filing of dispositive motions, the pretrial conference, or trial. 

Accordingly, the Court ORDERS the parties to file an updated joint case management 

statement by June 20, 2016, at 10 a.m. This statement should:

 Reflect the input of both Plaintiff and all Defendants who have been served.

 Specify whether PNC and PCS have been served. If PNC and PCS have not been 

served, Plaintiff must state when PNC and PCS will be served.

 Include proposed deadlines for the completion of fact and expert discovery, the filing 

of dispositive motions, the final pretrial conference, and trial.

 Indicate whether Homeward’s pending motion to dismiss, ECF No. 26, is now moot 

because, according to Homeward, the parties have settled Plaintiff’s claims as to 

Homeward, ECF No. 45 at 7.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: June 16, 2016.
