The settlement conference assigned to another judge in the

Second Amended Pretrial Order was reassigned to me because of that

judge’s unavailability. I have received the confidential statements,

without any attachments, addressed to that judge.

The confidential statements indicate it would not be

fruitful to hold a settlement conference in this action. Unless each

party shows otherwise in a supplemental confidential settlement

Because of the confidential nature of settlement statements, 1

I am silent about what is needed to convince me that a settlement

conference would be worthwhile, but that should be obvious to the

parties.
