February 1, 2019 Opinion or Order Filing 13 PAPERLESS ORDER denying #12 Joint Motion to Re-Set Trial Date. On January 23, 2019, this Court entered an order scheduling trial for October 21, 2019. (DE 3 ). A Telephonic Scheduling Conference is set for February 1, 2019 before Magistrate Judge Dave Lee Brannon. (DE 9 ). The Parties now move to continue the trial to February 2020. The Parties premise their motion on 1) vague statements regarding the Parties' availability, 2) Plaintiff's possible forthcoming Motion to Remand, and 3) the possibility of settlement. I do not find these reasons constitute good cause for a continuance, and the Parties' Motion is denied. The Parties are advised that future motions to continue the trial or extend specific deadlines will be granted only upon a showing of good cause supported by specific facts. The Parties are further reminded that they may consent to the jurisdiction of Judge Brannon, who generally allows the Parties great flexibility in setting the course and schedule of their case. Signed by Judge Donald M. Middlebrooks on 2/1/2019. (mbt)
