ORDER
JAMES P. O'HARA, Magistrate Judge.
The court convened a telephone status conference on November 14, 2014, to discuss reported problems between the parties in attempting to meet-and-confer over the issue of the representation of former-Sprint executive Craig Cowden by counsel for Time Warner Cable.1 As discussed on the record, unless the parties can come to a quicker solution with fewer people involved, the court set a deadline of 4:00 p.m. on November 21, 2014, for the parties to convene a conference call (with two full hours set aside), with all necessary decision makers on the line,2 to meaningfully discuss, compare views, and if possible, reach agreement on the issue.
In the hopefully unlikely event that the parties do not reach a resolution on the issue of Mr. Cowden's representation, the court set the following deadlines to govern a renewed motion for a protective order by Sprint:
• November 24, 2014: Sprint's renewed motion and brief in support, limited to five pages.
• November 26, 2014: Time Warner Cable's response in opposition, limited to five pages.
• December 1, 2014, at 12:00 p.m.: Sprint's reply brief, if any, limited to two pages.
The court will endeavor to rule any renewed motion expeditiously.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
