In light of the procedural posture of this case, the court grants the parties' joint motion. the clerk is directed to remove this action from this court's April civil term. This matter is referred to the magistrate judge for entry of an amended scheduling order. The parties shall have ten days from the date of this order to submit their respective motions for amendment of the scheduling order, together with supporting briefs not to exceed ten pages in length. Counsel served by NEF. Signed by Senior Judge Malcolm J. Howard on 4/3/2009. (Heath, D.)
April 3, 2009 Opinion or Order Filing 202 ORDER - This matter is before the court because the parties are once again unable to agree upon the procedure to be used in informing prospective class members of their right in regard to this action. The court has carefully considered the issue of posting a notice at Butterball's worksite. The court finds that a posting of a notice may be beneficial to putative class members. The court also finds that the notice proposed by Butterball is accurate and informative and should be approved with the following changes: see order for language. Finally, the court would like to encourage the parties, in the interest of judical economy, to work harder to resolve minor disputes, such as the one involved here, that may arise in this case. The court's time and resources need not be spent dealing with petty squabbles over inconsequential matters. Counsel served by NEF. Signed by Senior Judge Malcolm J. Howard on 4/3/2009. (Heath, D.)
