ORDER SETTING FURTHER

CASE MANAGEMENT

CONFERENCE AND 

VACATING HEARING

As set forth in the recent case management order, plaintiff was ordered to file a motion

for summary judgment on the lingering jurisdictional issues in this extraterritorial trademark

action by August 5, 2010, with a hearing scheduled for September 16 (Dkt. No. 128). No

summary judgment motion was filed. Instead, plaintiff left a voice mail with the clerk

explaining that the parties had reached a “settlement” and that no motion was necessary. 

The parties are reminded that until and unless a stipulated dismissal is filed, all courtordered deadlines must be followed. A pending “settlement” and ongoing negotiations do not

excuse missed deadlines. While an order to show cause would normally have been issued,
