v.

MICHAEL MURPHY, et al.,

Defendants.

_____________________________________/

No. C 09-5977 PJH

ORDER DENYING REQUEST FOR

DEFENDANT VW CREDIT, INC.'S

REPRESENTATIVE TO ATTEND

THE ENE TELEPHONICALLY

Date: July 21, 2010

Mediator: Lester Levy

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the request for defendant VW Credit's representative to be

excused from personally attending the July 21, 2010 ENE session before Lester Levy is DENIED. 

The court finds that VW Credit has not demonstrated that their representative’s personal attendance

at the ENE would “impose an extraordinary or otherwise unjustifiable hardship” in accordance with

ADR L.R. 5-10(d). Accordingly, the court DENIES the request to be relieved from compliance with

the ADR Local Rules and ORDERS the representative to appear at the ENE in person.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
