I uploaded Docs 88 and 89. Doc 89 shows a 45 step process for the Docket Control Order...whew! It also has an interesting nugget that caught my eye:



The parties must include the following matters in the joint conference report and be prepared to discuss such matters at the Scheduling Conference:

(1) A factual and legal description of the case which also sets forth the elements of each cause of action and each defense;
(2) The date the Rule 26(f) conference was held, the names of the those persons who were in attendance, and the parties they represent;
(3) A list of any cases that are related to this case and that are pending in any state or federal court with the respective case number and court;
(4) The expect length of trial;
(5) Whether the parties jointly agree to trial before a magistrate judge;
(6) Whether a jury demand has been made;
(7) Proposed modification of the deadlines in the Proposed Docket Control Order set forth in the attached Appendix A;
(8) The need for and modification of the proposed specific limits on discovery relating to claim construction, including depositions of witnesses, including expert witnesses, which are included herein;
(9) The entry of a Protective Order;
(10) The appointment of a Technical Advisor or Special Master;
(11) The number of claims being asserted;
(12) The possibility of early mediation; and
(13) Local Rules pertaining to attorney misconduct.

Would love to be a fly on the wall of that courtroom...with ears as big as Texas. LOL
