August 22, 2023 Filing 152 MINUTES (IN CHAMBERS) by Judge Dean D. Pregerson: The parties had a telephonic status conference, in which defense counsel represented that he was not ready to proceed with trial unassisted, due to health issues. Plaintiff disputes that characterization, and points to a conversation with defense counsel yesterday, in which Plaintiff claims defense counsel represented that he was able to proceed. The court has no way to resolve this dispute. Accepting defense counsel's representations as officers of the court, the court continued trial to Monday, August 28. Plaintiff's counsel indicated to the court that such a continuance would likely cause issues with witness scheduling, particularly for Plaintiff's expert. Lead Plaintiff's counsel indicated that he would inquire as to the expert's availability, but reiterated his objection to any continuance, and indicated that Plaintiff may move for a mistrial. The court notes that any such motion would likely be granted, for the reasons stated above. For those same reasons, the court concludes that resumption of this matter on Monday, August 28th is the least bad option available to the court. Should Plaintiff deem it necessary, he may request a telephonic hearing to move for a mistrial at any time prior to the resumption of trial on 8/28/2023 09:00 AM before Judge Dean D. Pregerson. See document for further details. Court Reporter: Not Present. (gk)
