IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

WINE SCOUT INTERNATIONAL,

Plaintiff,

 v.

PATRICIA CROWELL,

Defendant. /

No. C 07-05930 JSW

ORDER RE DISCOVERY

DISPUTE AND REQUEST FOR

CLARIFICATION

On May 8, 2008, plaintiff and counter-defendant Wine Scout International (“Wine

Scout”) and third-party defendant Mark Pope (“Pope”) filed a document entitled “Request for

Court Clarification Concerning Amended Notice of Unavailability of Counsel.” The request

presents a discovery dispute in violation of the Court’s procedures for resolving discovery

disputes. See Standing Order ¶ 7. The Court will not sanction the parties at this time, but the

parties are hereby admonished that future violations will be sanctioned. 

At the Case Management Conference, although the Court noted that Notices of

Unavailability are not recognized in federal court, the Court admonished the parties to be civil

and accommodate one another’s schedules. The Court HEREBY ORDERS that the parties shall

meet and confer in person on May 22, 2008 and submit a stipulated discovery plan to the Court
