k. Whether the counsel will stipulate to the magistrate judge assigned to

this matter acting as settlement judge and waiving any disqualifications by virtue of her so acting,

or whether they prefer to have a Settlement Conference before another judge; and

 l. Any other matters that may add to the just and expeditious disposition

of this matter.

3. Plaintiff and defense counsel are reminded of their continuing duty to

notify chambers immediately of any settlement or other disposition (see Local Rule 160). In

addition, the parties are cautioned that pursuant to Local Rule 230(c), opposition to the granting

of a motion must be filed fourteen days preceding the noticed hearing date. The Rule further

provides that “[n]o party will be entitled to be heard in opposition to a motion at oral arguments

if written opposition to the motion has not been timely filed by that party.” Finally, Local Rule

110 provides that failure to comply with the Local Rules “may be grounds for imposition by the

Court of any and all sanctions authorized by statute or Rule or within the inherent power of the

Court.”
