September 1, 2021 Opinion or Order Filing 147 ORDER: The Southern District of New York has reconfigured courtrooms and other spaces in its courthouses to allow civil jury trials to proceed as safely as possible during the COVID-19 pandemic. Under the centralized calendaring system currently in place, the Clerk's Office schedules up to three jury trials to begin on each day of jury selection: a primary case and up to two back-up cases that may proceed in its place if the primary case does not go forward. The Clerk's Office pl aces additional back-up cases on a weekly trial-ready calendar, which cases may proceed on any day that week if the primary case and two back-up cases do not go forward. On June 8, 2021, the parties informed the Court that they wished to proceed to t rial during either October or November 2021. (See Dkt. #144). The Court accordingly ordered that trial would commence on October 18, 2021 (Dkt. #145), and proceeded to request a jury trial for that date. The Clerk's Office has now notified the C ourt that this case has been placed on the trial-ready calendar for the week of October 18, 2021, but that it has not been given either a firm trial date or an assigned courtroom. The parties should be prepared to proceed to trial during that week. If the case cannot proceed during the scheduled week, the parties must notify the Court as soon as possible so that the Clerk's Office may adjust the trial-ready calendar accordingly. The Court has previously entered a schedule for pretrial submissions. (See Dkt. #145). The parties should plan to adhere to the deadlines set forth in the Court's prior Order. ( Ready for Trial by 10/18/2021.) (Signed by Judge Katherine Polk Failla on 9/1/2021) (ate)
May 25, 2021 Opinion or Order Filing 139 ORDER: On February 26, 2021, the Court entered an Order advising the parties that pursuant to the centralized trial calendaring system currently in place in the Southern District of New York, this case had been placed as third on the jury trial lis t for June 16, 2021. (Dkt. #117). Unfortunately, it was confirmed today that the second case on the jury trial list for that date is expected to proceed, and the Court thus is unlikely to have access to either a modified courtroom or a jury panel. As such, the Court regretfully must adjourn the June 16, 2021 trial start-date, and all its accompanying deadlines, sine die. The parties are directed to submit a joint letter on or before June 8, 2021, regarding their availability for trial during the fourth quarter of 2021. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Judge Katherine Polk Failla on 5/25/2021) (rro)
October 13, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 114 ORDER:There is currently a jury trial scheduled in this action for November 30, 2020. However, given the ongoing pandemic and representations from the parties, the Court does not believe it prudent to proceed with trial at this time. Accordingly, t he Court ADJOURNS the jury trial and its associated deadlines, including the final pretrial conference, sine die. The Court ORDERS the parties to submit a joint letter on or before October 23, 2020, with proposed jury trial dates for the second quarter of 2021. (Signed by Judge Katherine Polk Failla on 10/13/2020) (rro)
August 2, 2019 Opinion or Order Filing 95 OPINION AND ORDER re: 79 FIRST MOTION for Summary Judgment filed by ABM Janitorial Services Northeast, Inc.

The parties are to submit a joint letter on or before August 19, 2019, in which they set are to set forth their availability for trial in the second quarter of 2020, to request an alternative dispute resolution mechanism, and/or to propose an alternative path forward for resolution of this case. (Signed by Judge Katherine Polk Failla on 8/2/2019) (rro)
