Counsel seeks a 90-day continuance of the scheduling conference to allow further 

settlement discussions despite having just completed a failed mediation attempt. They offer no 

information as to the likelihood that the case will settle if they are given three more months or 

how they intend to spend this additional time. Because the Court has already continued the 

scheduling conference once, because this case is already more than four months and because, 

despite this, there is still no responsive pleading on file, the Court will GRANT the request only 

IN PART as follows:

1. The defendant SHALL file a responsive pleading no later than February 28, 

2020; 

2. The scheduling conference is continued to April 3, 2020 at 8:30 a.m. The parties 

SHALL submit a Joint Scheduling Report or a notice of settlement, no later than March 27, 

2020.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
