On January 24, 2008, Plaintiff filed a Notice of Settlement

in which he states “the parties have settled this action” and

“[d]ispositional documents will be filed within (20) calendar days.”

Therefore, a dispositional document shall be filed no later than

February 13, 2008. Failure to respond by this deadline may be

construed as consent to dismissal of this action without prejudice,

and a dismissal order could be filed. See L.R. 16-160(b) (“A failure

to file dispositional papers on the date prescribed by the Court may

be grounds for sanctions.”).

The status conference scheduled for February 19, 2008, is

reset for hearing on March 31, 2008, at 9:00 a.m., in the event that

no dispositional document is filed, or if this action is not

The status conference will remain on calendar, because 1

the mere representation that an action has been settled does not

justify removal of the action from a district court’s trial docket.

Cf. Callie v. Near, 829 F.2d 888, 890 (9th Cir. 1987) (indicating

that a representation that claims have been settled does not

necessarily establish the existence of a binding settlement

agreement).

otherwise dismissed. Further, a joint status report shall be filed

fourteen days prior to the status conference.1

IT IS SO ORDERED.
