On January 5, 2010 Defendants filed a Notice of Settlement

in which they state this action is settled. Therefore, a

dispositional document shall be filed no later than January 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.”). 

In light of the settlement, all pending motions 

are deemed withdrawn. However, the March 29, 2010 final pretrial

conference remain scheduled in the event that no dispositional

The final pretrial conference will remain on calendar, 1

because the mere representation that a case is settled does not

justify removal of the case 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).

document is filed, or if this action is not otherwise dismissed.

Further, a joint pretrial statement shall be filed seven days prior

to the conference.1

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: January 5, 2010
