Re: People v. Daniel Peter Masterson
Case No.: BA487932
Judge Olmedo,
I am writing to update the Court and all counsel on the status of the MLB v. MLBPA/Bauer
arbitration.
Since our July 5, 2022 chambers conference, new evidence has come forward in the Bauer
matter which will require extensive additional examination of one of the key witnesses. As a result,
the time estimate for completion of the matter has been extended to November.
As lead counsel, I am working full-time preparing and traveling back and forth to
Washington DC for the hearings. Given this substantial time commitment, it will be impossible for
me to prepare for the Mas‘erson trial until Bauer is complete, For these reasons, it would be my
request that the Masterson trial be continued to late January 2023.
I spoke with Mr. Mueller this afternoon to discuss the prospect of a continuance to late
January. Mr. Mueller had no objection to the matter being continued, particularly in light of the
fact that he anticipates providing the defense with additional discovery in the coming days.

Finally, as the Court may recall, I will be in Washington DC the week of August 15 and
‘unable to appear on our next court date. I wanted to be sure to provide you this information well in
advance of that date (August 17) so that these issues can be addressed at that time.
Respectfully,
ai
