Case No. 06cv1613-LAB (BLM)

ORDER CONVERTING EARLY NEUTRAL

EVALUATION CONFERENCE TO

TELEPHONIC EARLY NEUTRAL

EVALUATION CONFERENCE

On October 6, 2006, David Wakefield, counsel for Plaintiffs, lodged

in Chambers a written request to continue the Early Neutral Evaluation

Conference currently scheduled for October 11, 2006 at 1:30 p.m. In

support, counsel represents that on October 2, 2006, he received a

voicemail message from attorney Freddy Garmo, Esq., indicating that

Garmo had been retained as counsel for Defendants Faiah and Susie Delly.

To date, however, Plaintiffs’ counsel has been unable to confirm Garmo’s

representation of these Defendants, and no substitution of counsel has

been filed. Plaintiff’s counsel also represents that the Early Neutral

Evaluation Conference is unlikely to be productive on the date scheduled

because not all named Defendants have responded to Plaintiffs’

complaint.

On the record presented, the Court finds it inappropriate to

continue the Early Neutral Evaluation Conference. However, given

Plaintiffs’ counsel’s representations, the Early Neutral Evaluation

Conference currently scheduled for October 11, 2006 at 1:30 p.m. is

hereby converted to a telephonic Early Neutral Evaluation Conference.

All counsel and unrepresented parties shall appear telephonically at

this conference. Plaintiffs’ counsel shall initiate the conference

call. Failure of counsel and any unrepresented parties to participate

may result in the imposition of sanctions.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
