On March 28, 2008, Plaintiff filed a Notice of Settlement

in which he states “the parties have settled this action” and

“[d]ispositional documents will be filed within (20) calendar days.”

Therefore, a dispositional document shall be filed no later than

April 17, 2008. Failure to respond by this deadline may be construed

as consent to dismissal of this action without prejudice, and a

dismissal order could be filed. See L.R. 16-160(b) (“A failure to

file dispositional papers on the date prescribed by the Court may be

grounds for sanctions.”).

The status conference will remain on calendar, because 1

the mere representation that an action has been settled does not

justify removal of the action from a district court’s trial docket.

Cf. Callie v. Near, 829 F.2d 888, 890 (9th Cir. 1987) (indicating

that a representation that claims have been settled does not

necessarily establish the existence of a binding settlement

agreement). 

2

The status conference scheduled for April 28, 2008, is

reset for hearing on June 2, 2008, at 9:00 a.m. in the event that no

dispositional document is filed, or if this action is not otherwise

dismissed. Further, a joint status report shall be filed fourteen

days prior to the status conference.1

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: April 4, 2008
