STIP. & ORDER RE: APP. BY PHONE

Case No. C-05-3539-EMC 2

On September 1, 2005, the Court issued an Order Setting Initial Case Management

Conference in the above-captioned action, scheduling the CMC for January 4, 2006. On

September 15, 2005, Defendant Lisa Bradley filed a Motion to Dismiss the Complaint under

FRCP 12(b)(6) and Memorandum in Support. On September 30, 2005, Plaintiff filed a Motion

to Remand and Memorandum in Support. Plaintiff subsequently filed a Motion for Leave to

Amend Complaint and Memorandum in Support on October 6, 2005. The parties submitted

timely oppositions to Plaintiff’s motions, and the Court heard oral argument on December 7,

2005.

While the motions were under submission, and in response to the parties’ Stipulation

and Proposed Order Extending Deadlines, the Court entered an Order on December 16, 2005,

continuing the deadline for the Case Management Conference to the next Wednesday following

21 days after entry of any Order denying Plaintiff’s Motion to Remand. On December 22,

2005, the Court issued an Order Granting Defendant’s Motion to Dismiss, Denying Plaintiff’s

Motion for Remand, and Denying Plaintiff’s Leave to File Amended Complaint as to Defendant

Bradley. Accordingly, the Case Management Conference is now scheduled for Wednesday,

January 18, 2006. 

Pursuant to Local Rule 16-10(a), lead trial counsel for both parties must attend the

CMC. The rule also provides that any requests to appear telephonically must be filed and

served at least five days prior to the conference. Because Defendant’s lead counsel, Frank L.

Kollman, Esquire, resides and works in Baltimore, Maryland, Defendant respectfully requests

that he be permitted to attend the CMC telephonically. Plaintiff’s counsel stipulates and agrees

to Defendant’s request. 

Therefore, the parties hereby stipulate and respectfully request that the Court permit

Defendant’s lead trial counsel, Frank L. Kollman, to attend the CMC on January 18, 2006 by

telephone.

IT IS SO STIPULATED.
