REQUEST FOR CONTINUANCE OF 

CASE MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE

DATE: JUNE 1, 2007

TIME: 1:00 P.M.

)

Plaintiff, James Nelson, submits the following request for Continuance of the Case

Management Conference.

Following the filing of this action James Nelson also commenced a maritime claim for his 

injuries sustained while working on a fishing vessel. Damages on a claim of that type include any 

subsequent malpractice. The malpractice would include the claims being asserted by plaintiff in 

this case. Plaintiff’s attorney, James Zito, has been in ongoing communications with the attorney 

for Mr. Nelson on the maritime claim. The parties on that claim are close to settlement. When that 

claim settles it will render the instant claim moot. I have communicated my intent to ask for a 

continuance with the other party to this case but not the U.S. as I have no contact person on that 

AND ORDER GRANTING REQUEST

Dismissal will be submitted in this case. Accordingly it is respectfully requested that the instant 

Case Management Conference be continued for at least 60-days so that the other case can be 

concluded and this case dismissed.
