UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA - FRESNO DIVISION

LINCOLN BENEFIT LIFE COMPANY,

Plaintiff,

v.

LOURDES PARK, an individual, and JENNIFER 

PARK, an individual,

Defendants.

Case No. 1:14-CV-01874-BAM

ORDER GRANTING JOINT 

STIPULATION TO MODIFY CASE 

SCHEDULING ORDER

(Doc. 41)

On November 24, 2015, Defendants Lourdes Park and Jennifer Park, the only remaining parties 

in this interpleader action, filed a Joint Stipulation to Modify Case Scheduling Order. Defendants 

request that the Scheduling Conference Order issued on April 27, 2015, be modified to allow for 

participation in a Settlement Conference in the hopes of resolving this dispute without incurring 

unnecessary expense in further discovery and trial preparation. (Doc. 41.) 

Having considered the joint stipulation, the Court finds good cause for modification of the 

scheduling conference order and shall grant the requested relief. Further, this matter will be set for a 

Settlement Conference before Magistrate Judge Michael J. Seng on January 29, 2016, at 10:00 a.m. in 

Courtroom 6 (MJS) in the Fresno Division of the Eastern District of California.
