Defendants.

No. C-03-4269 CRB (EMC)

NOTICE AND ORDER SETTING

FURTHER SETTLEMENT

CONFERENCE

TO ALL PARTIES AND COUNSEL OF RECORD:

You are hereby notified that a further settlement conference is scheduled for August 1, 2005,

at 9:30 a.m., Courtroom C, 15th Floor, 450 Golden Gate Avenue, San Francisco, California 94102.

‚ Further Settlement Conference statements shall be lodged with the Court by

July 25, 2005. If this case is designated as an electronic filing ("e-filing") case,

statements must be lodged by hard copy only and should not be electronically

filed.

Lead trial counsel shall appear at the settlement conference with the parties. Any party

who is not a natural person shall be represented by the person or persons not directly involved in the

events which gave rise to the litigation but with full authority to negotiate a settlement. A person

who needs to call another person not present before agreeing to any settlement does not have full

authority. Full authority means authority to accept the last demand or counter-offer by the

other party. If a party is a governmental entity, its governing body shall designate one of its

members or a senior executive to appear at the settlement conference with authority to participate in

the settlement conference and, if a tentative settlement agreement is reached, to recommend the

agreement to the governmental entity for its approval. An insured party shall appear with a

representative of the carrier with full authority to negotiate up to the limits of coverage. The

Court shall be notified immediately if the carrier declines to attend. 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 but no later than the settlement conference statement.

All other provisions of this Court's original Notice of Settlement Conference and Settlement

Conference Order shall remain in effect.

The parties shall notify Magistrate Judge Chen's secretary, Leni Doyle, immediately at (415)

522-4050 if this case settles prior to the date set for further settlement conference.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: July 7, 2005
