STATUS CONFERENCE RESET

On the Court’s own motion,

IT IS ORDERED vacating the Telephonic Pretrial Status/Scheduling Conference set for
May 6, 2014 and resetting same to June 19, 2014 at 9:00 a.m. (15 minutes allotted) for the
purpose of assigning a trial date and a final pretrial management conference date if the case has
not settled. Counsel shall have their trial calendars available. Counsel for Plaintiff shall initiate
the telephonic conference by first arranging the presence of all other counsel on the conference
call and by calling this division at: (602) 372-5851 promptly at the scheduled time. The parties
and counsel shall not be permitted to participate in conferences via cell phones or
speakerphone.

Discovery Disputes – Discovery disputes are strongly discouraged. Before filing a
written motion to compel, please observe the following procedure.

If you believe that discovery to which you are entitled has not been provided to you as
required by the applicable rules, and you want the court to intervene, you must contact the other

party’s attorney (or the other party if he/she is self-represented), and then together, telephone the
court to ask for a telephonic conference. If the Judge assigned to this case is available, he will
take the call immediately. No such request will be considered, however, if made 10 or fewer
calendar days before the scheduled trial or evidentiary hearing.

To encourage the resolution of discovery disputes without court intervention, you are
urged to consider the risk that comes from not providing discovery responses as required by the
applicable rules. Even if no telephonic conference regarding discovery is requested, should a
party fail to provide discovery that the court later decides is relevant, the jury may be told, or the
court may assume, that the failure to provide discovery warrants an adverse inference against the
party who refused to provide it. E.g., Sing v. Gonzales, 491 F.3d 1019, 1024 (9th Cir. 2007)
(“When a party has relevant evidence in his control which he fails to produce, that failure gives
rise to an inference that the evidence is unfavorable to him” (citation omitted)); see also
Pendleton v. Brown, 25 Ariz. 604, 622, 221 P. 213, 219 (1923) (similar). Further, when a party
fails to respond completely to discovery requests that the court concludes are reasonable, the trier
of fact is permitted to assume that party is not credible in other ways. See generally Callender v.
Transpacific Hotel Corp., 179 Ariz. 557, 562, 880 P.2d 1103, 1108 (App. 1993); see also
Nardella v. Campbell Mach., Inc., 525 F.2d 46, 49 (9th Cir. 1975) (quoting Banks v. Chicago
Grain Trimmers, 390 U.S. 459, 467 (1968)).
