ALBERT ORTEGA, Plaintiff, v. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Defendant.


ORDER REQUIRING PARTIES TO PARTICIPATE IN SETTLEMENT CONFERENCE

The deadline for Defendant to file a motion for summary judgment has passed, and Defendant did not file a motion for summary judgment. On November 22, 2021, Defendant filed its updated report to the Court regarding settlement conference. (ECF No. 54). “Although the United States remains uncertain that a settlement conference would be productive, the United States submits that it would be appropriate for the Court to set a settlement conference in early 2022 in the interest of seeking resolution of this matter without trial.” (Id. at 1).

Given Defendant's report, that Defendant did not file a motion for summary judgment, and the ongoing judicial emergency in the Eastern District of California, the Court will require the parties to participate in a settlement conference before setting the pretrial or trial dates and deadlines.

Accordingly, within fourteen days of the date of service of this order, Defendant shall contact ADR Coordinator Sujean Park (spark@caed.uscourts.gov) to schedule a settlement conference.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
