LETICIA PINEDA, Plaintiff, v. SUN VALLEY PACKING, L.P., Defendant.
ORDER GRANTING PARTIES' REQUEST TO POSTPONE SETTING A SCHEDULING CONFERENCE
(ECF No. 69)
This matter is before the Court on the parties' joint status report, requesting to postpone setting a scheduling conference until after November 30, 2022. (ECF No. 69). As grounds, the parties state that they retained Retired Tulare County Superior Court Presiding Judge Howard R. Broadman to conduct a mediation on November 8, 2022. While the parties did not reach a settlement at the mediation, “they made significant progress and scheduled an in-person second day of mediation with Judge Broadman for November 30, 2022,” and they “are hopeful that they can reach a settlement on that date.” (Id. at 2).
Finding good cause to grant the request, IT IS ORDERED as follows:
1. The parties' request (ECF No. 69) to postpone setting a scheduling conference is granted;
2. By no later than December 7, 2022, the parties shall file a joint status report, addressing the status of settlement negotiations;
3. After review of the parties' joint status report, the Court will, if necessary, set a
scheduling conference; and
4. Should the parties reach a settlement, they are directed to comply with Local Rule 160.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
