On November 30, 2006, Plaintiff filed a Notice of

Settlement in which he states “the parties have settled this action”

and “[d]ispositional documents will be filed within (20) calendar

days.” Therefore, a dispositional document shall be filed no later

than December 20, 2006. 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. 16-160(b) (“A failure

to file dispositional papers on the date prescribed by the Court may

be grounds for sanctions.”).

The status conference will remain on calendar, because 1

the mere representation that an action 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). 

2

The status conference scheduled for December 18, 2006, is

reset for hearing on January 29, 2007, in the event that no

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

dismissed. Further, a joint status report shall be filed fourteen

days prior to the status conference.1

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: December 1, 2006
