On March 26, 2010, Plaintiff filed a Notice of Settlement

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

“[d]ispositional documents will be filed within (30) calendar days.”

Therefore, a dispositional document shall be filed no later than

April 26, 2010. 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. 160(b) (“A failure to file

dispositional papers on the date prescribed by the Court may be

grounds for sanctions.”).

The status conference scheduled for April 12, 2010, is

continued to commence at 9:00 a.m. on June 14, 2010, in the event

The status conference will remain on calendar, because 1

the mere representation that a case has been settled does not

justify discontinuance of calendering a scheduling proceeding. 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

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 7, 2010
