ORDER RE MOTION TO CONTINUE PRE-TRIAL DATES


Plaintiff Consumer Advocacy Group, Inc. (“Plaintiff”) seeks to continue pretrial dates.


On August 21, 2020, the parties jointly filed a proposed Case Management Order for Phase 2 with agreed-upon pre-trial deadlines and a trial date.

The Court adopted the parties’ proposed dates with slight adjustments of the trial and final status conference dates.


On September 29, 2020, the Court granted a motion to disqualify Plaintiff’s counsel.

According to Plaintiff, new counsel began representing Plaintiff on or about October 1, 2020.

(Motion at p. 1.)


On October 1, 2020, the Court signed the parties’ Case Management Order for Phase 2.


Plaintiff argues that with new counsel, the pre-trial dates in the Case Management Order need to be continued so that the new counsel can become familiar wit
