Re: Center for Biological Diversity v. Salazar, et al., Case No. 3:15-cv-658-JCS (N.D. 

Cal.)

Request for Proposed Intervenor to Listen by Phone to Upcoming Proceedings

Dear Magistrate Judge Spero:

On May 6, 2015, the undersigned counsel filed a motion on behalf of CropLife America 

(“CropLife”) to intervene as a defendant in the above-referenced case, and that motion is 

pending. CropLife and counsel have reviewed the Rule 26(f) Report filed by the parties on May 

8, 2015 and have an interest in the opportunity to hear the proceedings at the upcoming case 

management conference scheduled for May 15, 2015 at 2:00 p.m. Because CropLife’s lead 

counsel is in Washington, D.C., CropLife as a proposed intervenor respectfully asks the Court 

for leave to listen to the May 15 proceedings by telephone.

CropLife has submitted this request as soon as practicable following review of the May 8 

Rule 26(f) Report. Croplife contacted the parties regarding this request. Plaintiffs do not 

oppose, and Defendants took no position. 

CropLife can provide a conference dial-in if that would be of assistance to the court.

Thank you for your consideration of this request.

Sincerely yours,

Kirsten L. Nathanson

Counsel for CropLife America
