The parties filed late separate pretrial statements. As the

parties know, a timely joint pretrial statement was required. The

joint pretrial statement was due no later than June 27, 2007 pursuant

to the April 30, 2007 Order which stated that “[t]he parties shall

file a JOINT pretrial statement no later than seven (7) days prior to

the final pretrial conference.” As stated in Federal Rule of Civil

Procedure 6, “[w]hen the period of time prescribed or allowed is less

than 11 days, intermediate Saturday, Sundays, and legal holidays shall

be excluded in the computation.”

1 If a party responding to this OSC desires a hearing on

the OSC, the request for a hearing shall be made in the response

to the OSC. 

2

Sanctions jurisprudence can be invoked when documents are

filed late and/or are not filed in the ordered format, i.e. “joint.” 

Since the parties have failed to comply with the filing requirement,

the final pretrial conference scheduled for July 9, 2007 is continued

to commence at 2:30 p.m. on August 13, 2007. The parties shall file a

joint pretrial statement no later than August 2, 2007 or show cause

(“OSC”) why sanctions shall not be imposed by that failure.1 The

separate pretrial statements filed on June 29, 2007 and July 2, 2007,

are stricken. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: July 3, 2007
