UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ASHWIN KHOBRAGADE,

Plaintiff,

v.

COVIDIEN LP,

Defendant.

Case No.: 16-cv-0468-WQH-AGS

ORDER RESETTING THE 

MANDATORY SETTLEMENT 

CONFERENCE

Due to Judge Schopler’s temporary unavailability, the May 21, 2018 Mandatory 

Settlement Conference is vacated and rescheduled for July 17, 2018, at 9:00 a.m. Any 

party who has not yet submitted a confidential settlement statement may do so by 

July 10, 2018.

The Court further notes that it received another ex parte communication from 

Plaintiff Ashwin Khobragade in the form of an email dated May 15, 2018. The Court has 

not reviewed the contents of the email because ex parte communications are strictly 

prohibited. See S.D. Cal. Civ. R. 83.9 (“Parties to an action must refrain from . . . 

otherwise communicating with the judges unless opposing counsel is present.”).

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: May 17, 2018
