conference to October 12, 2015 or later date to accommodate their desire to have settlement 

discussions. Id. However, if the pretrial conference does not occur on September 28, 2015, the Court 

would not be available to have the conference until October 26, 2015. If the Court waited until that 

date for the conference, this would leave insufficient time for many of the pretrial activities—

including filing, opposing and hearing motions in limine.

On the other hand, the Court is not opposed to the request but would grant it only if counsel 

agree that they will complete various actions in advance of the pretrial conference—on a schedule that
