Opinion
Case No. 11-10998
02-16-2012
SHOPPERS CHOICE SUPERMARKET, INC., Plaintiff, v. AMERICAN EMPIRE SURPLUS LINES INSURANCE CO., Defendant.
ORDER SETTING TELEPHONE CONFERENCE AND
EXTENDING DISPOSITIVE MOTION DEADLINE
On February 14, 2012, the court held a telephone conference in this matter. During the conference, and for the third time since December 21, 2011, counsel for the parties indicated that they are still working on a potential settlement of Plaintiff's claim for business personal property loss. As a result, counsel requested another—and what the court anticipates will be a final—adjournment of the telephone conference, so defense counsel may discuss Plaintiff's latest settlement offer with his client. Accordingly,
IT IS ORDERED that counsel for the parties shall participate in a telephone conference on February 27, 2012, at 4:30 p.m. The court will place the telephone call. During the conference, counsel should be prepared to inform the court whether a settlement can be reached and, if not, what next steps the court will need to take to resolve this dispute.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the deadline for filing dispositive motions in this matter is EXTENDED to March 9, 2012.
