CONFERENCE AND CONTINUING

CASE MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE 

The Court received Defendant’s August 16, 2005 letter requesting a continuance of the Early

Neutral Evaluation conference scheduled for August 19, 2005 and of certain key depositions that

were scheduled in the days before the ENE on the ground that counsel had just substituted in as

counsel of record. Plaintiff informed the Court that it opposed a continuance; its client

representatives had already traveled from Taiwan for the depositions and the ENE. The Court held a

telephone conference on August 17, 2005. Arthur Brunwasser participated on behalf of Defendant;

Janine Bloch appeared for Plaintiff. 

Because defense counsel substituted in to this case on August 16, 2005, there is good cause

to continue the ENE and to reschedule the depositions. The continuance, however, is conditioned on

payment by Defendant of the reasonable travel expenses incurred by Plaintiff as a result of the lastminute continuances. Defendant’s counsel conceded that Defendant would be liable for those travel

costs if incurred for the purposes of attending the ENE and depositions. Plaintiff’s counsel

confirmed that her clients had traveled from Taiwan specifically for that purpose. The parties shall

meet and confer to agree on the amount of expenses to be reimbursed and that amount shall be paid

promptly by Defendant. The parties will also notify the evaluator of the continuance.

CONFERENCE AND CONTINUING

CASE MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE 

The Court received Defendant’s August 16, 2005 letter requesting a continuance of the Early

Neutral Evaluation conference scheduled for August 19, 2005 and of certain key depositions that

were scheduled in the days before the ENE on the ground that counsel had just substituted in as

counsel of record. Plaintiff informed the Court that it opposed a continuance; its client

representatives had already traveled from Taiwan for the depositions and the ENE. The Court held a

telephone conference on August 17, 2005. Arthur Brunwasser participated on behalf of Defendant;

Janine Bloch appeared for Plaintiff. 

Because defense counsel substituted in to this case on August 16, 2005, there is good cause

to continue the ENE and to reschedule the depositions. The continuance, however, is conditioned on

payment by Defendant of the reasonable travel expenses incurred by Plaintiff as a result of the lastminute continuances. Defendant’s counsel conceded that Defendant would be liable for those travel

costs if incurred for the purposes of attending the ENE and depositions. Plaintiff’s counsel

confirmed that her clients had traveled from Taiwan specifically for that purpose. The parties shall

meet and confer to agree on the amount of expenses to be reimbursed and that amount shall be paid

promptly by Defendant. The parties will also notify the evaluator of the continuance.
