2. Whether additional discovery is deemed necessary and, if so, the nature

and scope of the discovery and the time needed in which to complete it;

The parties are warned that failure to file a status report which addresses the

issues set forth above may result in the imposition of appropriate sanctions, including dismissal

of the action or preclusion of issues or witnesses.

The parties are informed that they may, if all consent, have this case tried by a

United States Magistrate Judge while preserving their right to appeal to the United States Court

of Appeals. An appropriate form for consent to trial by a magistrate judge is attached. Any party

choosing to consent may complete the form and return it to the clerk of this court. Neither the

magistrate judge nor the district judge handling the case will be notified of the filing of a consent

form unless all parties to the action have consented.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. Plaintiff’s status report shall be filed and served within 30 days from the

date of service of this order;

2. Defendants’ status report shall be filed within 30 days after service of

plaintiff’s status report; and
