No. 3:12-cv-00128-SWW

ORDER
On June 14, 2013, both parties filed pre-trial disclosure sheets [doc.#’s 33, 35].
Regarding the prospects for settlement, defendant states it has recently offered plaintiff a
reasonable offer of judgment, while plaintiff states he is amendable to settlement but that
defendant’s counsel has not contacted plaintiff’s counsel since the Court’s Order on
defendant’s motion for civility and to dismiss. It appears the parties are talking past each
other. In any case, the Court notes that plaintiff states he is open to a settlement
conference if defendant thinks it would be helpful or if the Court orders it. The Court
notifies the parties that it requires both parties to agree to a settlement conference before
such a conference is conducted.
IT IS SO ORDERED this 17th day of June 2013.
