Esquivel appeared for Defendants Sonia Angell, Steven Lopez, and Shirley Campbell.

Based on the discussion at the April 9, 2020 telephonic conference, the dates in the 

February 13, 2020 amended pretrial order shall be vacated and reset once a new trial date is 

selected. A status conference is set for June 9, 2020 for the parties to address a new date for the
