Case No.: C 08-3817 JW (PVT)

ORDER OF RECUSAL AS SETTLEMENT

MAGISTRATE JUDGE ONLY

On November 6, 2009, this court issued an order granting Plaintiffs’ Motions to Compel

Further Responses to Interrogatories and Production of Documents. On November 20, 2009, the

case was referred to Magistrate Judge Trumbull for a settlement conference. The settlement

conference is currently scheduled to take place on January 20, 2010. On January 4, 2010, Plaintiffs

filed a motion for sanctions based on Defendants’ failure to comply with this court’s prior order

compelling discovery. Among other things, Plaintiffs seek an order recommending imposition of

evidence preclusion sanctions, striking of the answer and entry of default judgment. Based on the

file herein,

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that, in light of the sanctions motion currently pending before

her, Magistrate Judge Trumbull recuses herself from acting as the settlement magistrate judge in this

case.
