1 During the conference the court encouraged the parties to schedule the deposition for October 3, 

2016, and barring unforeseen circumstances, the court expects that the deposition will occur on 

that date. However, in that Copart was not able to confer with Mr. Bauer regarding the October 3 

date, and to avoid another informal conference on this topic, the court clarifies that in no 

circumstances will the deposition occur later than October 10, 2016.
