ORDERRESCHEDULING PREHEARING CONFERENCE
OnApril 4, 2016, the undersignedjudge issued an Order Directing the Parties to Meet and Confer Regarding Litigation and Scheduling Issues in the above captioned case. On May 4, 2016, the parties submitted ajointreport to the undersignedjudge stating the parties would be available for a telephonic prehearing conference onJuly 20, 2016. On May 10, 2016, the undersignedjudge issued an Order Setting Discovery Deadline and Prehearing Conference, setting a prehearing conference onthe requested date ofJuly 20, 2016. On July 19,2016 (the day before the scheduled prehearing conference), counsel for the Respondent contacted the Office ofHearings after business hours and left a voice mail message stating he was no longer available for the prehearing conference atthe date andtime ordered. OnJuly 20, 2016, the undersignedjudge's staffassistant contacted the parties to request they submit ajoint status·report with suggested dates for rescheduling the prehearing conference based upon dates thejudge would be available. On July 27, 2016, the parties submitted ajointrequest suggesting the prehearing conference be held on any ofthe following dates: September 20, October 11, or October 13, 2016. While the request to reschedule the prehearing conference is granted inthis instance, the parties are reminded ofthe need to adhere to the schedule set by the undersignedjudge. In accordance with 14 C.P.R.§ 13.205(a)(6), an administrative lawjudge is empowered to regulate the course ofa hearing. Aspreviously noted by the FAA Administrator:[t]he Administrator expects thatthe parties will comply with orders issued by an ALJ during the hearing stage ofa proceeding. Ignoring an ALJ's orders cannot be countenanced in an orderly system ofadjudication. 1 Ifa party needs to request additional time before an event scheduled bythe undersignedjudge, the party should submitthe request in writing well before the event. Telephone calls to the Office ofHearings after business hours the day before an event undermine the undersigned judge's ability to ensure an "orderly system ofadjudication."
Pursuantto 14 C.P.R.§ 13.205(a)(l), (7), and (8),
