a.m. in Courtroom B, located on the 15th Floor of the Federal Building, 450 Golden Gate Avenue, 

San Francisco, California 94102. 

At the meet and confer session, the parties shall come prepared to meaningfully discuss 

and resolve their outstanding discovery dispute(s). In the event that the parties are unable to 

resolve their disputes, they shall draft a joint letter at the meet and confer session in compliance 

with paragraph 4 of the standing order, and said letter shall be presented by the parties for filing at 

the conclusion of the session. Thus, the parties are ORDERED to bring with them one laptop and 

a USB port-compatible storage medium (such as a thumb drive) to use in drafting said letter. The 

parties are advised that they will not meet with the undersigned during or after the meet and confer
