___________________________________/

Defense counsel’s February 27, 2008 letter requests this Court to increase the trial estimate from

seven to 15-20 days. Due to such request, this Court ORDERS the parties in their joint pretrial statement

to provide an offer of proof of the substantive testimony of each witness. This Court will consider to

impose a reasonable time limit on trial less than the parties’ requested estimates.

Due to this Court’s heavy caseload and its effect to hold to scheduled trial and related dates, the

parties are encouraged to consider consent to the conduct of further proceedings by a United States

Magistrate Judge.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: March 3, 2008 /s/ Lawrence J. O'Neill
