Hearings scheduled for January 18, 2017 at 9:00 a.m. in Charleston SC will commence as scheduled. However due to an unanticipated and unavoidable scheduling conflict, the court will recess at 10:30 a.m. and resume at 1:30 p.m.　

If counsel or parties have either: (1) a matter scheduled for 10:30 a.m. or later, or (2) a matter which is contested and therefore may not be concluded by 10:30 a.m., the matter may be rescheduled in advance to the 1:30 p.m. docket if counsel contacts Agnes Babb (803-765-5024, Agnes_Babb@scb.uscourts.gov) or Regina Schmidt (843-725-7204, Regina_Schmidt@scb.uscourts.gov) before 1:00 p.m. today.　

Judge Waites will additionally consider settlement orders, continuance requests or withdrawals for that docket if filed with the court no later than 1:00 p.m. today.
