         NO. D-1-GN-13-000783, HONORABLE TIM SULAK, JUDGE PRESIDING

                              MEMORANDUM OPINION

PER CURIAM

                Appellant’s brief on appeal was originally due on November 17, 2014. On appellant’s

motion, the deadline for filing was extended to January 16, 2015. Appellant has now filed a second

unopposed motion for extension of time to file his brief, requesting an extension to May 1, 2015,

so that the parties can continue settlement negotiations. The appellees do not oppose the motion.

                In light of the parties’ potential settlement, we abate the appeal until May 1, 2015.

If the parties have finalized a settlement by that date, they are instructed to file a motion to reinstate

and dismiss the appeal in accordance with the settlement agreement. If the parties have not finalized

a settlement by that date, they are instructed to file a report informing this Court of the status of the

appeal and requesting any necessary extension of the abatement.
