This letter also indicates that the settlement conference was only recently moved

to March 5, 2014 on the court's own motion, without consultation with the parties, and

that Ms. Alfieri had been able to attend the prior settlement conference date of February

13, 2014, but cannot attend the new date due to a prearranged employment

seminar. For these reasons, and good cause otherwise appearing therefor, the Court

hereby ORDERS as follows:

Insurance carrier representative Patricia Alfieri is hereby excused from personally

attending the settlement conference in this case on March 5, 2014.

SO ORDERED.
