ORDER REGARDING UPCOMING

The hearing set for April 20, 2016 is VACATED and replaced with a telephonic 

conference on the same date at 1:30 p.m. Courtroom Deputy Jean Davis will contact the parties to 

make arrangements for the conference. The purpose of the conference is not to discuss 

defendants’ motion for summary judgment, but to discuss whether jurisdiction exists given that

plaintiff and defendant Wilson/Phillips Holdings, Inc. are both citizens of Texas. See Notice of 

Removal ¶¶ 15, 20 (Dkt. No. 1); 28 U.S.C. § 1332(a)(1) (“The district courts shall have original 

jurisdiction of all civil actions where the matter in controversy exceeds the sum or value of 

$75,000, exclusive of interest and costs, and is between . . . citizens of different States.”).

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: April 18, 2016
