  • 05/23/19

    We wanted to provide additional details given the dates provided by the courts in the prior update.

    - Prior to the Case Management Conference on May 9, 2019, the Parties were in agreement with many of the significant case management dates, except for the proposed deadline for Mediation. Given that the case was filed in January 2019, the Parties had proposed a deadline to file dispositive motions by July 31, 2019.

    - During the Case Management Conference, the Magistrate Judge advised the Parties that the proposed case management dates were too ambitious given the District Judge’s calendar and current docket. The Parties had nothing to do with the dates set forth in the Case Management and Scheduling Order. These were dates selected by the Court given the District Judge’s calendar and docket.

    - The Magistrate Judge reminded the Parties that the Magistrate Judge could preside over the case if all Parties were willing to consent. If the Magistrate Judge would preside over the case, the Parties could get more expeditious deadlines than what is currently set forth in the District Judge’s Case Management and Scheduling Order. Accordingly, we have a call into Defendants’ counsel requesting that Defendants join with the Plaintiff in requesting that the Magistrate Judge preside over this case. We are currently waiting to hear back from Defendants’ counsel.

    We will provide an update once we discuss with Defendants' counsel. Our goal here is to expedite this to the greatest extend we can. In the meantime, we will be returning $40,000 of the unused rehab funds to investors. Funds should hit your account within the next 5 business days.

  • 05/17/19

    The Court entered a Case Management and Scheduling Order on May 10, 2019. From review of the Order, below are key dates:
    04/15/2020 – Deadline to complete Mediation
    05/01/2020 – Deadline to file dispositive motions
