Status Conference Order
On February 8, 2013, counsel for the parties participated in a telephone scheduling and status conference with the Court.
The parties are negotiating one remaining key issue of the draft settlement agreement. They have previously filed a stipulation agreeing to the definition of a class (doc. 36). If the parties can resolve the remaining key issue, counsel will provide the Court with a proposed conditional order certifying a class and giving preliminary approval to the settlement within the next 4 weeks. If the remaining issue is not resolved by negotiation, counsel are DIRECTED to call my office (614.719.3370) on or before March 15, 2013 to discuss a briefing schedule for a motion to certify a class.
