January 5, 2024 Opinion or Order Filing 19 PAPERLESS ORDER SETTING SCHEDULING CONFERENCE: A Scheduling Conference is set in this matter on January 18, 2024, at 11:15 a.m. Eastern Standard Time in the Fort Lauderdale Division before United States Magistrate Judge Augustin-Birch, to take place via Zoom Video Teleconference. Any motions to modify the existing trial date should be filed two business days prior to the Scheduling Conference. Motions to modify the trial date must specifically state the basis for the request, including detailed factual support, and must provide a compelling reason. The parties are further advised that the Court is strongly disinclined to modify the trial date based upon the scheduling "tracks" contained within the Local Rules and/or based upon vague references to the complexities of the case. To log in through ZoomGov Meeting, use Meeting ID: 16096518849 and Passcode: 752819. All counsel shall appear by both audio and video. Because of the expedited nature of the conference, the parties are relieved of the conference report requirement of Local Rule 16.1(b). Any motion to continue the Scheduling Conference must include at least three alternative dates on which all counsel and any pro se parties are available for a rescheduled Conference. Signed by Magistrate Judge Panayotta D. Augustin-Birch on 1/5/2024. (mdl)
