ORDER SETTING FURTHER STATUS 

CONFERENCE

On April 27, 2015, the Court held a status conference in this matter and determined that a 

further status conference was warranted for several reasons. First, defense counsel expressed concern 

that West Side Health Care District may be federally funded such to require compliance with the 

Federal Tort Claims Act. Second, it appears, assuming that Plaintiff was not required to file an FTCA 

claim, the parties are amenable to participating in a site inspection to make a determination of whether 

they agree barriers to access that exist at the site. Finally, the Court notes that Plaintiff still has not 

filed proof of service as to Defendant, Emergency Medical Services Group. See Doc. 13.

To allow time to investigate these issues, the Court will set a further status conference. Thus, 

the Court ORDERS:

1. A further status conference is set on May 27, 2015 at 9:00 a.m. Telephonic 

appearances via the CourtCall service are authorized;

2. Counsel SHALL file a joint report no later than May 20, 2015 setting forth the 

Case 1:15-cv-00027-JLT Document 16 Filed 04/28/15 Page 1 of 2
