Civil No. 05cv1994-WQH(NLS)

ORDER GRANTING DEFENDANTS EX

PARTE APPLICATION FOR

TELEPHONIC APPEARANCE OF

STATE PARTY REPRESENTATIVE AT

MANDATORY SETTLEMENT

CONFERENCE

[Doc. No. 31]

A Mandatory Settlement Conference (“MSC”) is scheduled in the above-captioned matter on

February 8, 2007 at 2:00 p.m. Before the Court is Defendants’ unopposed Ex Parte Application

requesting that the Court allow National Enterprise System, Inc.’s (“NES”) representative to appear at

the MSC telephonically and defense counsel’s Declaration in support [Doc. No. 31]. In support of their

request, Defendants state that NES’s office is located in Ohio, and that travel to San Diego for the MSC

would involve substantial expense that is better reserved for potential settlement purposes. (Defendants’

Application, 3.) Defendants also state that Defendant St. Paul Traveler’s insurance representative will

appear in person at the MSC, and is vested with full and complete settlement authority in this case. (Id.) 

Plaintiff’s counsel does not object to Defendants’ request. (Declaration of M. David Meagher ¶ 3.)
