ORDER CONTINUING 

RULE 16 LITIGATION SCHEDULING CONFERENCE 

On September 9, 2014, an Order Setting Rule 16 Litigation Scheduling Conference and 

Directing Rule 26(f) Planning and Submission was filed. Among other things, this Order set the 

Rule 16 Litigation Scheduling Conference for November 13, 2014, at 1:30 p.m. Eastern time. 

On November 6, 2014, the FAA filed a Rule 26(f) Report. This Report stated that the 

parties "reached a settlement of this matter on November 6, 2014, and are working [sic] 

memorializing settlement terms with a signed settlement agreement." The Report went on to 

provide litigation dates "if the parties are unable to finalize the settlement in this matter." 

On November 12, 2014, the Office of Hearings attorney contacted the parties via 

telephone conference call to inquire whether a settlement had been finalized, or whether the Rule 

16 Litigation Scheduling Conference should be continued to provide additional time to finalize 

the agreement. The parties agreed to continue the Rule 16 Litigation Scheduling Conference to 

provide sufficient time for the FAA to receive the signed settlement agreement, and file a 

withdrawal of the Complaint. 

Having reviewed the case file, all pleadings and motions, all relevant caselaw, statutes, 

regulations, rules, and authority, and being fully advised; 
It Is Hereby Ordered: 

1. Pursuant to 14 C.F.R. § 13.205(a), the Rule 16 Litigation Scheduling Conference, set for 

November 13,2014, at 1:30 p.m. Eastern time is continued to Wednesday, December 

17,2014, at 1:30 p.m. Eastern time. The parties shall access the Conference by dialing 

202-493-2343. 

2. Pursuant to 14 C.F.R. § 13.215, if the parties finalize a settlement agreement prior to 

December 17, 2014, the FAA shall file a withdrawal of the Complaint.
