070603 - AAA submits agenda for preliminary hearing that duplicates prior
070604 - notices and is conflicting with goal of case management todate which
070605 - has resolved most of the standard issues.  AAA indicates parties
070606 - cannot contact Arbitrator directly and that seems to conflict with
070607 - order issued on 980120, and recent letter to parties dated 980303.
070608 -
070609 - We may need a telephone conference now that Foti has been joined to
070610 - clarify these matters.  However, I don't want to burden the record
070611 - with more case administration documents.
070612 -
070613 - Scheduled call to Marcela to clarify this.
