Magistrate Judge M. Page Kelley: ELECTRONIC ORDER entered. The court has reviewed13 the parties' joint submission and is inclined to adopt the proposed deadlines without holding a scheduling conference, if the parties agree that the court can adopt the proposed deadlines based on the joint submission. To request a scheduling conference, counsel should email Deputy Clerk Vieira (leonardo_vieira@mad.uscourts.gov), copying opposing counsel, by close of business on August 16, 2024, with proposed dates for the scheduling conference. If the parties agree that the court can adopt the proposed deadlines based on the joint submission, they do not need to take further action. The court will assume that the parties agree if neither party timely requests a scheduling conference. Barring a request for a scheduling conference, initial disclosures are to be completed by 8/15/24; except for good cause shown, no motions seeking leave to add new parties, or to amend the pleadings to assert new claims or defenses, may be filed after 2/15/25; requests for production of documents and interrogatories must be served by 2/15/25; requests for admission must be served by 1/30/25; fact depositions must be completed by 2/15/25; fact discovery closes 3/3/25; plaintiff's trial expert designations and disclosures must be made by 3/30/35; defendant's trial expert designations and disclosures must be made by 5/1/25; trial expert depositions must be completed by 6/30/25; expert discovery closes 6/30/25. The court will set a status conference after the close of fact discovery. Dispositive motions due 7/30/25, with oppositions due 21 days after service of the motion(s) and reply(ies) due 14 days after service of the opposition(s). Regarding discovery disputes, if the parties agree, counsel may forego formal motion practice and email Deputy Clerk Vieira to request a hearing on the discovery dispute, copying opposing counsel unless the matter is ex parte. If either party wishes to engage in formal motion practice, however, the parties must do so. (Vieira, Leonardo) |
