In light of the fact that plaintiff’s new counsel requires time to consult with plaintiff and

become familiar with the case before trial, the extension of time shall be granted. The Second

Scheduling Order shall be vacated, and the parties shall meet and confer and file a stipulation

scheduling new dates in this action for a trial confirmation hearing and jury trial. The court shall

then issue a Third Scheduling Order.

Based on the foregoing, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. Plaintiff’s motion for extension of time is GRANTED;

2. The Second Scheduling Order filed November 6, 2007, is VACATED in its entirety;

3. The parties shall meet and confer to schedule the following dates in this action:

(1) Date for jury trial before the Honorable Anthony W. Ishii at least three

months from the date of this order; and

(2) Date for a trial confirmation hearing before the Honorable Anthony W. Ishii

four to six weeks before the trial date.

The parties shall confirm the availability of these dates on the court’s calendar by

contacting Harold Nazaroff, courtroom clerk to the Honorable Anthony W. Ishii, at

(550) 499-5668; 

4. Within thirty days from the date of service of this order, the parties shall file a

stipulation setting forth the agreed-upon dates for the trial confirmation hearing and

jury trial.

5. The court shall issue a Third Scheduling Order after the parties have filed their

stipulation.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
