STATUS REPORT ORDER - The Court is in receipt of the parties' joint status report, in which Defendant reports that Plaintiff will be interviewing for the position of Ticket Clerk on April 16, 2024 at 9:00 a.m. In light of the parties' request not to have a settlement conference at this time, the Court will decline to schedule one at this stage. The Court, however, orders the parties to submit, by April 20, 2024, ex parte settlement letters to Judge Marutollo's chambers via email (marutollo_chambers@nyed.uscourts.gov). The ex parte settlement letters shall comply with Rule III.C of Judge Marutollo's Individual Practices and Rules and shall provide a candid assessment of the parties' views on potential settlement. Upon receipt and review of the letters, the Court will schedule a time to speak ex parte with the parties to determine if a settlement conference will be fruitful.

Fri 03/15 3:42 PM
ORDER - The Court is in receipt of the parties' March 15, 2024 status report, in which the parties state that "[t]he LIRR is scheduling a final interview for plaintiff for the position of Ticket Clerk." In the February 29, 2024 status report, however, Defendant LIRR reports that the "second interview is scheduled for late March." Defendant LIRR shall file a letter, by March 22, 2024, stating the date in which the final interview for Plaintiff for the position of Ticket Clerk will occur. If a date has not yet been set for the interview, Defendant LIRR shall attach to their letter an affidavit or declaration from a representative from LIRR's Human Resources Department; the affidavit or declaration shall indicate why there is a delay in scheduling the interview. The parties shall also file a joint status report by March 25, 2024 providing dates in April 2024 in which they are available for a settlement conference. Additionally, pursuant to Chief Judge Brodie's Individual Practices and Rules, "[u]nless otherwise ordered by the court, within 60 days from the date for the completion of discovery in a civil case, the parties shall submit to the court a proposed pretrial order." As the Court noted in its December 4, 2023 order, "the parties were reminded to comply with Chief Judge Brodie's Individual Practices and Rules regarding the filing of a joint pretrial order." A joint proposed pretrial order shall therefore be filed by April 2, 2024, which is sixty days after the close of all discovery. Ordered by Magistrate Judge Joseph A. Marutollo on 3/15/2024. (JAM) |
