UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

UNITED STATES SECURITIES AND

CASE NO. 04 CV 2105 JM (AJB)

ORDER REGARDING EX PARTE

APPLICATION TO CONTINUE

TRIAL DATE AND REQUEST TO

Doc. No. 187

vs.

PLATFORMS WIRELESS

INTERNATIONAL CORP., WILLIAM C.

MARTIN, CHARLES B. NELSON,

ROBERT D. PERRY, FRANCOIS M.

DRAPER, VICTOR L. ZILLER,

Defendants.

On October 20, 2008, Defendants Platforms Wireless International Corp., William C. Martin,

and Robert D. Perry (“Defendants”) filed an ex parte application to continue the trial date scheduled

in this matter from November 12, 2008 to February 1, 2009, and to set a telephonic status conference

for October 31, 2008. Doc. No. 187.

The court hereby DENIES the request to set a telephonic status conference for October 31,

2008, as the parties’ pre-trial conference is already calendared for that date.

With respect to the request to continue the trial date, the court tentatively denies the application

as the court has already expended significant resources securing a specific trial date in this matter, and

because the trial date has been on calendar for a substantial period of time. However, if Plaintiff

chooses, Plaintiff may file a response to the request for a continuance no later than October 27,

2008. Time permitting, the court will address the issue at the pre-trial conference, previously

scheduled for October 31, 2008 at 8:30 a.m.

The court strongly urges Defendants to comply with the local rules regarding the preparation

of a pre-trial order. Should Defendants elect not to participate in the filing of such pre-trial order,

Defendants are at risk of witness and evidence preclusion.

This order also confirms that today, October 21, 2008, the court telephonically notified the

parties of the contents of this order.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
