February 24, 2009
ORDER GRANTING JOINT MOTION TO CONTINUING MANDATORY SETTLEMENT CONFERENCE AND DISCOVERY MOTIONS CURRENTLY SET FOR MARCH 10, 2009 [Doc. No. 21]
Pending a preliminary settlement agreement, on February 24, 2009, the parties filed a joint motion to continue the Mandatory Settlement Conference and the hearing and pleading deadlines related to Plaintiff's pending motions to compel discovery responses. Doc. No. 21.
GOOD CAUSE APPEARING, the joint motion is GRANTED. The hearings on Plaintiff's motions to compel and the Mandatory Settlement Conference, currently set for March 10, 2009 at 1:30 p.m., are continued until April 6, 2009, at 1:30 p.m., to allow the parties to finalize the settlement terms.
If the parties are unable to reach a written agreement to settle Plaintiff's claims (except for attorneys' fees and costs), all deadlines set forth in this Court's December 10, 2008 Case Management Order Regulating Discovery and Other Pretrial Proceedings, and all related pleading deadlines, will be recalculated from the date of the rescheduled hearing.
In the interim, a Case Management Conference will be held on March 30, 2009 at 9:15 a.m. Counsel shall appear telephonically. The Court will initiate the conference call.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
