 · A further status conference is set for March 19, 2015. The parties shall submit, at least 

seven days prior to the status conference, a joint status report that includes the Rule 26(f) 

discovery plan, with all named parties participating in the preparation and completion of the 

report. 

No settlement conference is currently scheduled. A settlement conference may be set at 

the time of the Final Pretrial Conference or at an earlier time at the parties’ request. In the event 

that an earlier settlement conference date or referral to the Voluntary Dispute Resolution Program 

(VDRP) is requested, the parties shall file said request jointly, in writing. Because the case will 

be tried to a jury, all parties should be prepared to advise the court whether they will stipulate to 

the trial judge acting as settlement judge and waive disqualification by virtue thereof. Counsel 

are instructed to have a principal with full settlement authority present at any Settlement 

Conference or to be fully authorized to settle the matter on any terms. Each judge has different 

requirements for the submission of settlement conference statements; the appropriate instructions 

will be sent to you after the settlement judge is assigned. 

IT IS SO ORDERED. 

DATED: August 7, 2014.
