filing") case, statements must be lodged by hard copy only and should not be

electronically filed.

Lead trial counsel shall appear at the Further Settlement Conference with the parties. Any

party who is not a natural person shall be represented by the person or persons not directly involved

in the events which gave rise to the litigation but with full authority to negotiate a settlement. A

person who needs to call another person not present before agreeing to any settlement does not have

full authority. Full authority means authority to accept the last demand or counter-offer by

the other party. If a party is a governmental entity, its governing body shall designate one of its

members or a senior executive to appear at the settlement conference with authority to participate in

the settlement conference and, if a tentative settlement agreement is reached, to recommend the

agreement to the governmental entity for its approval. An insured party shall appear with a

representative of the carrier with full authority to negotiate up to the limits of coverage. The

Court shall be notified immediately if the carrier declines to attend. Personal attendance of a

party representative will rarely be excused by the Court, and then only upon separate written

application demonstrating substantial hardship served on opposing counsel and lodged as early as

the basis for the hardship is known but no later than the settlement conference statement.

All other provisions of and dates set forth in this Court's original Notice of Settlement

Conference and Settlement Conference Order shall remain in effect.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
