July 31, 2019 Opinion or Order Filing 17 ORDER granting #15 LETTER MOTION to Expedite Discovery. The schedule suggested by Plaintiff is adopted by the Court. Although defendant contends (Dkt. No. 16) that four months are necessary for discovery, Defendant does not explain in any fashion what discovery is necessary. As discussed at the preliminary injunction hearing, this appears to be a straightforward breach of contract action.

As to the hearing proposed by Plaintiff, no explanation is provided as to what that hearing would consist of. The Court will conduct a conference on August 28, 2019 at 10:30 to discuss next steps after the closing of discovery, which will take place on August 27, 2019. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Judge Paul G.
