IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

SAN JOSE DIVISION

RICHARD L. CARRIZOSA and MARY PEA,

on behalf of themselves and others similarly

situated,

Plaintiffs,

v.

ORDER RE: PLAINTIFFS' SETTLEMENT

STATUS REPORT

[Re Docket No. 289]

The court preliminarily approves the terms of the settlement with defendant Paul R.

Stassinos. However, plaintiffs must file and serve a proposed order for notice to the class that they

feel is appropriate regarding the settlement within 10 days of this order. In addition, plaintiffs are to

file and serve a proposed order for further action against defendants Legal Recovery Services, Inc.

("LRS") and Alan Mecham within 10 days of this order. LRS and Mecham shall have 15 days from

the date of service to respond if they have any objections to the proposed order. 

Based on the motion to withdraw filed by counsel for LRS and Mecham, it appears that these

defendants do not intend to resist having judgment entered in favor of plaintiffs. The court thus asks

LRS and Mecham to advise the court within 15 days whether they intend to proceed further in the

to withdraw as counsel, LRS can appear further only with counsel.
