v.

DOW CHEMICAL COMPANY, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 3:15-cv-02724-LB 

SCHEDULING ORDER

The court issues this revised schedule. As discussed at the hearing, the parties may adjust the 

discovery dates by stipulation. The point of the next case-management conference is to set up a 

reasonable discovery plan and build in an ADR option before full-blown depositions (especially 

depositions in India). There is plenty of room in the schedule with an August trial date.
