What happened

In Kessler v. Bank of America, the court had required the parties to file a joint letter after discovery by August 2, 2024.

Judge Cronan reminded the parties that they must comply with court orders and warned that failing to do so could result in sanctions. The order did not decide the underlying dispute.
