No. C05-01878 JW (HRL)

ORDER DENYING FEDERAL

INSURANCE COMPANY’S MOTION

FOR ORDER SHORTENING TIME

[Re: Docket No. 116]

On March 10, 2008, plaintiff Federal Fire Insurance Company (“Federal”) moved for an

order shortening time on its motion for sanctions against defendant St. Paul Fire and Marine

Insurance Company (“St. Paul”). Federal requests that the hearing on its sanctions motion be

set for March 18, 2008 when this court will hear St. Paul’s motion for protective order. St. Paul

opposes the request for shortened time. Upon consideration of the moving and responding

papers, IT IS ORDERED THAT:

*E-FILED 3/14/2008*

Federal’s motion for an order shortening time is DENIED. The parties’ papers indicate

that they are continuing to confer about Federal’s request for reimbursement in connection with

the cancelled deposition of Dr. Hillman; and, it is not apparent that the matter is yet ripe for

judicial intervention. In any event, the court does not find that an expedited hearing is

warranted.
