Opinion
Civil Action No. 11-cv-00545-WJM-KLM
10-06-2011
MINUTE ORDER
ENTERED BY MAGISTRATE JUDGE KRISTEN L. MIX
This matter is before the Court on Defendant's Expedited Motion to Vacate Settlement Conference [Docket No. 32; Filed October 5, 2011] (the "Motion"). The Motion neglects to state what defense counsel told the Court regarding the upcoming settlement conference in a telephone conversation on October 5, 2011: Defendant will not offer money to settle Plaintiff's claims at this time. Accordingly, although Plaintiff opposes the relief requested, the Court does not believe a settlement conference would be productive absent both parties' interest and willingness to participate.
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Settlement Conference set for October 13, 2011, at 1:30 p.m. is VACATED.
