United States District Court

Northern District of California

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

BARBARA THORNE, et al.,

Plaintiffs,

v.

BATH IRON WORKS CORPORATION, et 

al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 14-cv-02460-SI 

ORDER RE: CASE MANAGEMENT

CONFERENCE

This case was reassigned to this Court on November 3, 2015. Docket No. 23. Previously, 

the Honorable Samuel Conti issued a stay, pending the outcome of an appeal before the Ninth 

Circuit in McIndoe v. Bath Iron Works Corp., No. 13-56762. Docket No. 21. Oral argument in 

that case took place on August 31, 2015. The Court therefore expects the Ninth Circuit to rule 

reasonably soon. 

The Court plans to schedule a case management conference once the Ninth Circuit issues 

its decision in McIndoe. However, if the parties feel that it would be useful to have a conference 

sooner, they may request one by contacting the courtroom deputy, Tracy Kasamoto, at (415) 522-

2028.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: March 8, 2016
