IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JOHN PAUL SIMS, individually, and

on behalf of all others similarly

situated,

Plaintiff,

v.

METROPOLITAN LIFE

INSURANCE COMPANY,

Defendant.

NO. C 05-2980 TEH 

SCHEDULING ORDER RE:

BRIEFING AND HEARING

DATES FOR SUMMARY

JUDGMENT MOTIONS

The Court is in receipt of Defendant’s letter, dated June 30, 2006, reporting on the

parties’ meet and confer discussions. It has also come to the Court’s attention that there was

a discrepancy regarding the date established for the filing of the cross summary judgment

motions. During the June 30, 2006 telephonic status conference, both parties agreed to file

their respective summary judgment motions by July 24, 2006. However, the minute order

noted that the cross summary judgment opening briefs were due by July 14, 2006. In

keeping with the parties’ understanding and agreement, the Court orders that the cross

summary judgment opening briefs be filed on or before July 24, 2006.

Furthermore, in light of Defendant’s compelling request that the Court hear the cross

motions for summary judgment and the class certification motion simultaneously, and

because Plaintiff has no objection thereto, this Court agrees that proceeding in that manner

would be the most efficient way to move forward with this case. The Court will therefore

hear both cross motions for summary judgment and the motion for class certification on

September 25, 2006.
