ANTHONY NGUYEN,

Plaintiff,

v.

M. D. BITER,

Defendant.

_____________________________________/

Case No. 1:11-cv-00809-AWI-SKO (PC)

ORDER DENYING PLAINTIFF’S MOTION 

FOR A SETTLEMENT CONFERENCE

(Doc. 98)

Plaintiff Anthony Nguyen, a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis, filed 

this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 on May 18, 2011. This action is proceeding 

against Defendant Biter for violation of the Eighth Amendment of the United States Constitution.

On January 31, 2014, Plaintiff filed a motion seeking a settlement conference in this 

matter. This case is exempted from the mandatory scheduling order requirement, which 

encompasses settlement conferences, and the Court will set a settlement conference only if both 

parties believe one would be beneficial. Local Rules 240(c)(8), 270. Given the absence of any 

indication that Defendant is agreeable to participating in a settlement conference, Plaintiff’s 

motion is HEREBY DENIED.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
