specific injuries claimed,
The deposition of plaintiff's expert remains to be taken on
June 30, 1999, and defendant's expert, Doctor Dahmus, has not yet
been scheduled for deposition; nevertheless both counsel assure
the Court that the case will be ready for trial when it is called
during the week of July 12, 1999,
plaintiff has filed various other lawsuits over unrelated
injuries; defendant agrees that evidence per se of the lawsuits
have no relevance in this case, except possibly for depositions
contradicting plaintiff's present position at trial.
