ORDER

Before the Court is Defendants Perverted Justice Foundation, Inc. and Xavier Von

Erck’s (“Defendants”) Ex Parte Motion for Order Continuing Preliminary Pretrial

Conference (Doc. 208). On October 2, 2009, the Court scheduled a Rule 16 Preliminary

Pretrial Conference for November 9, 2009 at 3 p.m. Defendants request a sixty (60) day

continuance of the Preliminary Pretrial Conference to early January 2010. Defendants’ lead

trial counsel, Matthew Umhofer, is scheduled to serve as trial counsel in a federal criminal

case in Santa Ana, California. The trial is set to begin on October 20, 2009 and is expected

to last 6-8 weeks. The Court’s Order requires lead trial counsel for each party to personally

appear at the Preliminary Pretrial Conference, and Mr. Umhofer is the only attorney

authorized to enter into any settlement agreements or stipulations on behalf of Perverted

Justice and Xavier Von Erck. Defense counsel has notified Plaintiff of the scheduling

conflict, and she opposes changing the date of the conference. The other Defendants in this

case also were notified, and have no objection.
