CALENDARING NOTICE
Issued: March 24, 2015

This case is presently scheduled to be called for oral argument on May 06, 2015 at 9:30
a.m. in Boston, MA. There will be no continuance except for grave cause.
Within two weeks after the date of this notice, counsel for each party should advise this
office of the name of the person who will be presenting oral argument by completing and filing
the Designation Form available on the courts website at www.ca1.uscourts.gov. If counsel
presenting oral argument has not yet entered an appearance, counsel must file an appearance and
motion in accordance with 1st Cir. R. 12.0(a) with the Designation Form.
The identity of the panel, as well as the time allotted for oral argument, will be posted on
the Court Calendar page of the court's website one week prior to the date of oral argument. Where
there is more than one party on a side, the courtroom deputy will contact counsel about dividing
the argument time.
Arguing counsel must arrive at least 15 minutes before court convenes and should
proceed directly to the courtroom and check-in with the courtroom deputy. Once counsel
begins to argue, the courtroom deputy sets the signal lights. The light turns amber when counsel
has five minutes left to argue. The light turns red (and a beep sounds) when counsel's argument
time has expired.

Recordings of all proceedings in cases by parties before the court will be made available
online unless the court orders otherwise or the court closes the proceedings to the public. Counsel
therefore should consider the privacy implications of this before argument.
On occasion, cases scheduled for oral argument are removed from the calendar before the
scheduled date. The oral argument calendar is frequently prepared before the judges have
completed their review of the briefs. Therefore, if the panel ultimately concludes that argument is
not warranted in a particular case, that case will be removed from the argument calendar. In such
circumstances, the clerks office will endeavor to notify counsel as promptly as possible.
Any inquiries about oral argument may be addressed to the Calendaring Clerk, Laura
Michalski, 617-748-9069.

/s/ Margaret Carter, Clerk
