On October 24, 2006, Plaintiff filed a Notice of Settlement

in which he states “the parties have settled this action” and

“[d]ispositional documents will be filed within (20) calendar days.”

Therefore, a dispositional document shall be filed no later than 

November 13, 2006. Failure to respond by this deadline may be

construed as consent to dismissal of this action without prejudice,

and a dismissal order could be filed. See L.R. 16-160(b) (“A failure

to file dispositional papers on the date prescribed by the Court may

be grounds for sanctions.”).

The status conference will remain on calendar, because 1

the mere representation that an action has been settled does not

justify removal of the action from a district court’s trial

docket. Cf. Callie v. Near, 829 F.2d 888, 890 (9th Cir. 1987)

(indicating that a representation that claims have been settled

does not necessarily establish the existence of a binding

settlement agreement). 

2

The status conference scheduled for November 6, 2006, is

rescheduled to commence at 9:00 a.m. on January 16, 2007, in the event

that no dispositional document is filed, or if this action is not

otherwise dismissed. Further, a joint status report shall be filed

fourteen days prior to the status conference.1

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: October 24, 2006
