August 24, 2012 Opinion or Order Filing 62 ORDER denying #61 Motion to Continue: The undersigned District Judge DENIES in part the "Consent Motion for Continuance of Trial Date" filed August 23, 2012 (Doc. 61). The portion of the motion seeking additional time in which to conduct discovery (including depositions of non-party witnesses, see Doc. 61, p. 2) will be ruled on by the Magistrate Judge assigned to the case, the Honorable Donald G. Wilkerson. The motion is DENIED to the extent it seeks to continue the dispositive motion deadline and to move the January 7, 2013 jury trial to July 15, 2013. The trial date is a firm setting around which other trials/hearings have been carefully and tightly scheduled, and to continue that date (given this District Judge's current trial docket, with no available slot until 2014) would result in an unacceptable delay in this 2011 case. The parties remain free to consent to trial before Magistrate Judge Wilkerson, who enjoys a more flexible docket and generally can accommodate joint continuance requests for an agreed trial date. (This is mentioned solely as one option; adverse consequences will not result from any party electing to withhold consent.) Signed by Judge Michael J. Reagan on 8/24/12.
