Minute Entry for proceedings held before Steven M. Gold : Initial Conference Hearing held on 6/4/2004. Dreilinger for plaintiff, Pollack and Stein for defendant. Parties' proposed schedule adopted, with the understanding that revisions will likely be necessary once defendant's pending motion to dismiss certain aspects of the case is decided. Discovery will proceed while the motion is pending, but focused upon the allegations made by the named charging parties pending resolution of the motion or further order of the court. Defendant shall, however, promptly provide an updated list of employee names and addresses, specifically indicating if contacting any of the employees listed would be claimed to violate the attorney-client privilege. NEXT CONFERENCE: OCTOBER 28, 2004 AT 11 AM. (Court Reporter n/a.) SO ORDERED(Gold, Steven) (Entered: 06/04/2004)
