Civil Action No. 05-cv-02169-PSF-BNB.
May 24, 2006
ORDER
The parties have filed a Joint Status Report Regarding Settlement (Dkt. # 34), filed in lieu of dismissal papers. The filing was in response to the magistrate judge's May 8, 2006 minute order (Dkt. # 33), which itself was issued in response to the parties' May 5, 2006 Joint Status Report Regarding Settlement Negotiations (Dkt. # 32) stating that they "anticipate that within the next two (2) weeks they will memorialize the settlement in a more formal agreement and file with the Court a Request for Dismissal of the action. . . ." In this second joint status report, the parties claim to need another two weeks to finalize their settlement allegedly due to "one counsel's unavailability due to a personal matter." The magistrate judge allowed the parties until June 5, 2006 to file their dismissal stipulation or a status report addressing why dismissal has not been accomplished (Dkt. # 35).
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that if dismissal papers are not filed byJune 5, 2006, counsel for the parties shall appear before the undersigned for a status conference on Thursday, June 8, 2006 at 8:30 a.m.
