Counsel may not modify these dates without leave of court. The parties shall comply with 

the Court’s standing orders, which are available at cand.uscourts.gov/jstorders.

The parties must take all necessary steps to conduct discovery, compel discovery, hire 

counsel, retain experts, and manage their calendars so that they can complete discovery in a timely 

manner and appear on the noticed and scheduled dates. All counsel must arrange their calendars 

to accommodate these dates, or arrange to substitute or associate in counsel who can. 

Dates set by this Court should be regarded as firm. Requests for continuance are 

disfavored. The Court will not consider any event subsequently scheduled by a party, partycontrolled witness, expert or attorney that conflicts with the above hearing date as good cause to 

grant a continuance. The Court will not consider the pendency of settlement discussions as good 

cause to grant a continuance. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: March 11, 2015
