the instant action is brought pursuant to the Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization

Act, which provides: “Any civil action filed under this section shall be stayed during the

pendency of any criminal action arising out of the same occurrence in which the claimant is

the victim.” See 18 U.S.C. § 1595(b)(1). For purposes of § 1595, a criminal action “is

pending until final adjudication in the trial court.” See 18 U.S.C. § 1595(b)(2). On July 10,

2007, an indictment was filed, charging defendants with, inter alia, harboring an alien,

specifically, plaintiff Indarwati Midjan, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1324(a). See United States

v. Chan, CR-07-0428 MMC. 

Accordingly, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 1595(b)(1), the instant action is hereby

STAYED pending final adjudication of United States v. Chan, CR-07-0428 MMC. The July

27, 2007 case management conference is hereby VACATED; the parties shall file a joint
