CONLEY and HAROLD E, CONLEY, Defendants IN RE: PRETRIAL CONFERENCE Present at a pretrial conference held June 2, 2004, were Paul J, McDermott, Esquire, attorney for the plaintiff, and Michael S. Grab, Esquire, attorney for the defendant. This case arises out of the residency of Anna M, Conley at the Green Ridge Village Nursing Home, The plaintiff alleges that there is an amount due and owing of$41,735,05, Ms, Conley was a resident at Green Ridge Village from January 10,2002, through December 10, 2002, where she received nursing care, Some amounts were paid on account of her residency but there remains unpaid the amount aforesaid, The defendants deny that there are amounts due and owing and have filed an answer alleging negligence in the care of Anna Conley by the plaintiff. The plaintiff has indicated in its pretrial memorandum that it intends to file a motion in limine seeking to preclude the testimony of Harold Conley because Mr. Conley has refused to produce himself for deposition, Mr. Grab indicated, however, that it was extremely unlikely that Mr, Conley would appear for the trial of this case, Accordingly, the motion in limine will, in all likelihood, be moot, Mr. Grab indicated that he would appear for the trial of the case but could not state the degree to which he will now be able to defend against the claim, A nonjury trial has been scheduled in this matter for Wednesday, June 30, 2004, at 9:30 Vii\,:t'~'l"1'\'::'i\}i\.l::7d '''11'1''''', f"'. r,.
