On April 1, 2010, Plaintiff filed a Notice of Settlement in

which she states that “this entire case has settled.” Further,

Plaintiff states that “[a] stipulation requesting dismissal of the

entire action will be filed within thirty (30) days” and “that the

multiple motions . . . scheduled to be heard on April 19, 2010, 

. . . may be dropped.” Therefore, motions scheduled to be heard on

April 19, 2010, “dropped” and deemed withdrawn. Further, a

dispositional document shall be filed no later than May 3, 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

The final pretrial conference will remain on calendar, 1

because the mere representation that a case 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).

papers on the date prescribed by the Court may be grounds for

sanctions.”) 

The final pretrial conference scheduled for June 28, 2010,

at 1:30 p.m., will remain scheduled in the event that no

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

dismissed. Further, a joint pretrial statement shall be filed seven

days prior to the final pretrial conference.1

IT IS SO ORDERED.
