April 23, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 73 PAPERLESS ORDER. THIS MATTER is before the Court on the email communications with the Parties today, April 23, 2020. The Parties were asked if they preferred to conduct the hearing via videoconference or teleconference; if they intended to call witnesses; and if they had additional exhibits, other than those already submitted, to be introduced. The Parties were unable to agree on a format or answer these questions. Accordingly, the Court issues this Order. The preliminary injunction hearing set for April 27, 2020 at 1:00 PM will proceed as a telephonic hearing. The dial-in information remains the same. The Court notes that, although the hearing is proceeding telephonically rather than via video, the number of lawyers permitted to participate will nonetheless be limited to conduct the hearing in an orderly fashion. The Court further notes that it reserves the right to exclude any testimony or exhibit that has not been noticed or submitted to opposing counsel and the Court by 6:00 PM on April 24, 2020. Signed by Judge Kathleen M. Williams on 4/23/2020. (jws)
