Over at theonering.net it is reported that one or both of the parties refused to agree to the court's request to continue the case management on June 27th. Here is the link and the quote. Just so you know based on the posters previous posts I believe that they are a lawyer but not out of California. They say:

"Apparently, one or both of the parties refused to agree to the court's request to continue the case management conference to June 27, the date the court wants the hearing on New Line's Demurrer and Motion to Strike (currently set for 6/24) to be held. It appears that the case management conference did occur as scheduled on Friday, June 6. The court's website now shows that a trial date has been set, for October 19, 2009. It is scheduled to be a jury trial, with a 15-20 day time estimate. The court also scheduled two more status conferences, for December 8, 2008 and October 9, 2009.

I should caution that it is very common for trial dates to get continued, so there is no guarantee at all that the trial will happen then, even if the case does not settle for then. And there will be a lot more legal manuevering between now and then."

Here is the court site for this case:

You'll need the case number which is BC385294
