Re: Miniace v. Pacific Maritime Association

 Case No. C 04-03506 SI

Dear Judge Larson:

I represent cross-defendant Michael Corrigan. You scheduled a settlement

conference in this action after receiving Michael Baker's September 14, 2005 letter stating

that "all parties agree to move the settlement conference" in this case to December 9. Mr.

Baker jumped the gun slightly. I sent him an email at 12:17 on September 14 advising that

Mr. Corrigan, could not attend on December 9, because he will be out of state.

Our office attempted to find another date for the conference, and we learned that

your first available date is January 17, when one of the parties' attorneys is scheduled to be

in trial. That date is also later than the parties would want.

The parties wish to proceed with the conference on December 9. Mr. Corrigan has

agreed that he will attend by telephone communications with me, but I assume he will

need your permission not to attend in person. I ask for this permission so we can proceed

on December 9.

Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you for your consideration.

Very truly yours,

Peter Fortune
