IRMA RAMIREZ, et al.,

Plaintiffs,

v.

EARTHSONG, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 13-cv-04039-KAW 

ORDER REGARDING STATUS 

REPORTS AND NEED FOR

MEDIATION

On February 5, 2016, the Court ordered the parties to file a joint status report that 

addresses the status of Defendant Bruce Becker’s (dba Earthsong) Chapter 13 bankruptcy petition. 

On February 19, 2016, Defendants filed a status report, in which they reported that the 

proceedings were ongoing and expected to conclude in April 2019. (Dkt. No. 22 at 2.) On 

February 22, 2016, Plaintiffs filed a status report, in which they stated a willingness to dismiss Mr. 

Becker and Earthsong, and prosecute the case against the landlord defendants. (Dkt. No. 23 at 2.)

Accordingly, if Plaintiffs wish to lift the stay on the litigation and pursue mediation, they 

shall dismiss Mr. Becker and Earthsong, file a motion or stipulation to lift the stay, and file the

“Notice of Need of Mediation” form, as required by General Order No. 56, which is available on 

the Court’s ADR website.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: March 15, 2016
