EUREKA DIVISION

CARLOS HAWTHORNE, II, No. C 08-1473

Plaintiff, NOTICE AND ORDER SETTING

SETTLEMENT CONFERENCE IN 

v. PRO SE PRISONER EARLY 

SETTLEMENT PROGRAM

R. AYERS, et al.,

Defendants.

___________________________________/

TO ALL PARTIES AND COUNSEL OF RECORD:

You are hereby notified that the settlement conference previously scheduled for February 2,

2011 at Solano State Prison will be held instead on February 24, 2011 at 9:00 a.m. at San Quentin

State Prison.

Lead trial counsel shall appear at the settlement conference with the parties and persons

having full authority to negotiate and settle the case. A person who needs to call another person

not present before agreeing to any settlement does not have full authority. To the extent that

such consultations are necessary, they must be made in advance of the settlement conference. 

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.

Confidential settlement conference statements shall be mailed or emailed

(NJVpo@cand.uscourts.gov) to and received by chambers no later than two weeks prior to the

settlement conference.

responsibility.

 No later than thirty (30) days prior to the settlement conference, counsel1 shall prepare, efile and electronically submit (via email to NJVpo@cand.uscourts,gov) a Word or Wordperfect

version of the writ necessary to secure plaintiff's attendance at the settlement conference. It is

counsel's2 responsibility to determine whether security, health or other issues prevent the transport of

plaintiff to the settlement conference, and if so, to advise the Court of the same no later than thirty

(30) days prior to the settlement conference. 

Any request to continue the settlement conference shall state the reason therefor and be

submitted in writing as soon as possible well in advance of the scheduled conference date. Requests

to vacate the settlement referral must be made to the referring Judge, not Magistrate Judge Vadas. 

The parties shall notify the undersigned's Chambers immediately at (707) 445-3612 if this

case settles prior to the date set for the settlement conference. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
