ORDER
J. RANDAL HALL, District Judge.
Discovery in this case is presently governed by the Third Revised Joint Discovery Plan ("JDP") entered on February 5, 2015. Pursuant to the JDP, discovery will close on March 3, 2016. During this discovery period, the parties have filed several motions to compel and other discovery related motions. As expressed at the hearing of August 14, 2015, it now appears that court involvement on a more regular basis is necessary to ensure that the case proceeds forward in an efficient and focused way. To that end, the Court will conduct monthly discovery hearings at which time any unresolved discovery issues will be addressed.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the parties appear in the United States Court, at the Federal Justice Center in Augusta, Georgia, on each of the following days:
Thursday, September 17, 2015
Wednesday, October 21, 2015
Thursday, November 12, 2015
Thursday, December 17, 2015
Thursday, January 21, 2016
Thursday, February 25, 2016
The hearings will begin promptly at 10:00 a.m. These set hearings may be cancelled or continued only by the Court or by written consent of all parties that there are no issues in dispute at that time. Scheduling conflicts will not be grounds for a continuance.
An attorney representing each party must be physically present. Corporate representatives of the parties are not required to attend until and unless the Court orders their appearance.
The parties shall provide the Court with a list of issues to be addressed on the Friday prior to each scheduled hearing.
