UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

On March 12, 2014, this Court held an initial scheduling conference. (Doc. 33.) Counsel 

Mark Johnson appeared in person for Plaintiff. Defendant Ruben Garcia Aranda, in pro per, did not 

appear. Due to Mr. Aranda’s failure to appear at the scheduling conference, the Court did not issue 

case management dates.

During the March 12, 2014 hearing, the Court inquired into Plaintiff’s ongoing settlement 

negotiations with Defendant, whether Plaintiff was in contact with Defendant, and the substance of 

any communications between Plaintiff and Defendant. The counsel who appeared at the hearing, 

however, was not Plaintiff’s counsel of record and was unable to address the Court’s concerns.
