COMMODITY FUTURES TRADING 

COMMISSION

Plaintiff, No. C 05-2142 PJH

v. ORDER VACATING HEARING

DATE ON MOTION TO INTERVENE

ROBERT JOSEPH BEASLEY, et al.,

Defendants.

_______________________________/

Before the court is the Motion to Intervene filed in this action on March 4, 2007 by

Theodore F. Gradel, Sarah Gradel, Thomas A. Mazza, and James X. Maude (collectively

the “movants”). The motion was noticed with a current hearing date of April 11, 2007. 

Prior to this, however, two days after receiving the parties’ notice of settlement in this action

and upon the parties’ request, the court entered an order staying all further proceedings in

the instant action, and setting a follow-up case management conference for May 24, 2007. 

See Order dated February 16, 2007. 

In view of the stay currently in effect in this action, the movants’ motion to intervene

must be taken off calendar, and the April 11, 2007 hearing date is hereby VACATED. The

court will not consider the movants’ motion unless all parties bound by the stay have been

given notice, and an opportunity to be heard fully, on the issue whether the stay should be

lifted in order to accommodate movants’ motion. Until this occurs, the court will conduct

the litigation in accordance with its prior order, and all parties, as well as movants, may

present their positions at the scheduled case management conference set for May 24,

2007. 

In view of this order, plaintiff’s motion for an order to appear telephonically at the
