These dates may be changed only by leave of the Court. Any deadline previously set and not addressed by this order remains unchanged. This order resolves ECF Nos. 4598 and 4602.
The Court has set these dates in part to accommodate the concerns faced by the Thomson and TDA Defendants, whose in-house counsel is currently undergoing treatment for a serious medical condition. See ECF No. 4598. While those defendants believe, and the Court hopes, that counsel's condition will allow her to assist in the preparations for a January 2017 trial, it is possible that her condition or other circumstances will make this impossible. Accordingly, Thomson is ordered to begin preparation now to replace its in-house counsel should she be unable to participate in the litigation on the dates set forth above.2 The Court does not anticipate granting further continuances based on the same grounds.
The Court reminds the parties to the DPP case that Magistrate Judge Corley is available to assist with settlement efforts upon request of the Court.
Good cause appearing, the motion to seal related documents, ECF No. 4612, is GRANTED.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
