PAPERLESS ORDER DISCHARGING 10 ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE TO PLAINTIFF'S COUNSEL: The Court has carefully reviewed Plaintiff's counsel's Response to the Order to Show Cause ("Response") [DE 12]. It appears, based upon the representation of Michael L. Feinstein, Esq., that he was unaware of the Court's December 22, 2022 scheduling conference due to an office clerical error, as the firm's Case Manager/Paralegal has been attending to her premature baby and inadvertently overlooked the Court's Order, despite having procedures in place to ensure court filings are addressed in a timely fashion. The Court accepts Mr. Feinstein's representation (and the attached Affidavit of Ms. Sickles) and will decline to sanction Plaintiff's counsel or Plaintiff on this occasion. The Order to Show Cause [DE 10] is therefore DISCHARGED. No further action shall be taken by the Court, and the Court considers this matter closed. However, the Court cautions Mr. Feinstein that any future failure to appear at a hearing or to comply with Court orders in this district can have serious consequences. Signed by Magistrate Judge William Matthewman on 12/29/2022. (cpe)

PAPERLESS ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE TO PLAINTIFF'S COUNSEL: This case was duly set and noticed on December 6, 2022, for a Scheduling Conference to be held by Zoom Video Teleconference (VTC) before the Undersigned United States Magistrate Judge on December 22, 2022 at 1:30 p.m. [DE 7]. At the time of the scheduled hearing on December 22, 2022, the Court called the case, but there was no appearance by Plaintiff's counsel. The Court waited 5 minutes for Plaintiff's counsel to appear. Defendant's counsel has not yet made an appearance in the case, so the hearing could not go forward at all. The failure of Plaintiff's counsel to appear as required prevented the Court from discussing several important issues and has disrupted this Court's schedule. Accordingly, Plaintiff's counsel, Michael Laurence Feinstein, Esq. is hereby ORDERED TO SHOW CAUSE as to why he and/or Plaintiff should not be sanctioned or held in contempt of court for counsel's failure to appear at the duly noticed Scheduling Conference. Plaintiff's counsel shall file a written response to this Court's Order to Show Cause on or before noon on December 29, 2022. Failure to comply with this Order may result in further sanctions upon Plaintiff's counsel and/or Plaintiff. Further, Plaintiff's counsel is ORDERED to provide a copy of this Order and his Response to this Court's Order to Show Cause to the Plaintiff, George Sharp. Despite Plaintiff's counsel's failure, the Court will go ahead and enter the Pretrial Scheduling Order it would have entered had Plaintiff's counsel properly appeared. Signed by Magistrate Judge William Matthewman on 12/22/2022. (cpe)

PAPERLESS ORDER SETTING SCHEDULING CONFERENCE: Scheduling Conference set for 12/22/2022 at 1:30 PM in the West Palm Beach Division before U.S. Magistrate Judge William Matthewman to take place via Zoom Video Teleconference (VTC). Any motions to modify the existing trial date should be filed two (2) 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: 160 540 3826 and Passcode: 246129. All counsel shall appear by both audio and video. Because of the expedited nature of the conference, the parties are relieved of Local Rule 16.1(b)'s conference report requirement. Signed by Magistrate Judge William Matthewman on 12/6/2022. (cpe)
