Deadlines. (ECF No. 29). The Court has been informed that the parties have settled all claims in this

Accordingly, Plaintiff’s motion (ECF No. 29) is hereby GRANTED. All remaining deadlines in
Court’s Final Scheduling Order (ECF No. 17) are hereby lifted. The parties are directed to file
appropriate dismissal materials with this Court within thirty (30) days of the date of entry of the
Circuit Court of Nevada County, Arkansas’s order granting approval of the settlement and
distributing the settlement proceeds. In the meanwhile, the parties are directed to file a status report
with the Court every sixty (60) days. The parties may send their status report in electronic form to
