ORDER RE SETTLEMENT

REFERRAL

Pending before the Court are the parties’ cross-motions for summary judgment. Although

the parties have participated in the early neutral evaluation process, the Court finds that a referral to

another magistrate judge for a settlement conference may prove fruitful prior to any ruling on the

summary judgment motions. Accordingly, the Court hereby ORDERS the parties to file a joint

status report and state whether they would like the opportunity to attend a settlement conference. 

The parties should also indicate whether there is a particular magistrate judge to whom they would

like to be assigned. The parties shall e-file their statement by January 19, 2010. No chambers copy

is necessary.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: January 12, 2010 _______________________________
