| Please note that this case has been screened for oral argument. The exact date of your oral argument has not been determined at this time. You will be receiving a calendar approximately 4 weeks before the scheduled argument date. Please review the current and future argument dates immediately to determine if you have a conflict on any day (or days) that are scheduled for argument sessions. # Click Here to View Published Argument Calendars and Future Court Session Dates and Locations If you have such a conflict, please inform the court by sending a letter identifying the day (or days) on which you have a conflict and the specific reason for the conflict. Please note that blanket assertions of a conflict for the entirety of a court week or weeks will not be considered absent an adequate explanation of good cause. While the clerk's office takes conflict dates into consideration in scheduling oral arguments, we do not guarantee that every request will be honored. You can file your letter using the ECF docketing event 'Correspondence to Court', 'Letter filed' 'regarding availability for oral argument'. Your compliance with this policy will minimize the need for motions to continue or reschedule oral argument. The court also encourages you to notify the clerk if conflicts with these dates develop in the future. [26-1061] (JMM) [Entered: 06/26/2026 11:22 AM] |
