and shall continue until completed on the schedule discussed at the conference. The issues to

be tried shall be those set forth in the joint proposed pretrial order except to the extent modified

by order in limine. This final pretrial order supersedes all the complaint, answer and any

counterclaims, cross-claims or third-party complaints, i.e., only the issues expressly identified

by counsel by NOVEMBER 27, 2006. The Court requires that Nancy Lendall be the first witness. 

On further reflection, depending on the strength of clear-cut admissions she may make, the

Court may revisit Motions Nos. 1 and 2.
