As set forth in Section 5(d) of the Court's Standing Order, if the parties agree on a proposed schedule for submitting a further joint status report, they should assume that the Court approves the proposed date unless the Court enters an order to the contrary.

In an emergency, Chambers can be reached at (202) 354-3350. Signed by Judge Ana C. Reyes on 5/30/2024. (lcsj) (Entered: 05/30/2024) |
