UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

Currently before the court are Parties’ motions in limine, which are scheduled for hearing 

on April 4, 2016. In preparation for the hearing the court has reviewed the Parties’ motions and 

has concluded that the interests of conservation of judicial resources might better be served if 

those issues that appear to the court to be matters of law – such as integration of the contract and 

the enforceability of the “Terms and Conditions” portion of the contract – are resolved prior to any 

trial. Because the court finds that resolution of these, and possibly other, issues of law prior to 

trial may substantially narrow the issues to be tried or eliminate the need for trial altogether, the 

court wishes to explore the possibility of additional dispositive motions as soon as possible 

through a telephonic conference.

THEREFORE, it is hereby ORDERED that the Parties appear before the court 

telephonically on Thursday, March 31, 2016, at 1:30 p.m. For instructions on the use of the 

court’s telephonic conference equipment, please call the Deputy Clerk at the general chambers 

telephone number, (559)499-5660.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: March 25, 2016
