ORDER CONTINUING PRELIMINARY

PRETRIAL CONFERENCE

This case is scheduled for a Preliminary Pretrial Conference on February 22, 2010. The

parties filed a Joint Pretrial Conference Statement.1 The parties represent that they may need

additional time to complete discovery. To the extent that the parties require additional time for

discovery, they may stipulate to additional time or move the Court for an extension. As to the issue

of bifurcating the trial between a bench and jury trial, the Court does not discern any objection in the

Joint Statement from Defendants, but defers ruling on this issue until the Conference. Moreover,

upon review of the Joint Statement, the Court finds it insufficient for the purpose of setting a trial

schedule. 

Accordingly, the Court CONTINUES the Preliminary Pretrial Conference to March 22,

2010 at 11 a.m. On or before March 12, 2010, the parties shall file a Joint Preliminary Pretrial
