(In Chambers) Order to Show Cause Re: Sanctions for Failure to
Comply with Settlement Requirements
Pursuant to the Court’s Case Management Order of June 29, 2016, the parties were
originally required to complete their settlement conference by December 30, 2016, (see Dkt. 28,
Court’s Order of June 29, 2016, at 17). This deadline was extended several times. (See Dkt. 56,
Court’s Order of November 28, 2016, at 1 (January 31, 2017); Dkt. 66, Court’s Order of December
9, 2016, at 1 (March 1, 2017); Dkt. 69, Court’s Order of December 22, 2016, at 1 (April 1, 2017);
Dkt. 90, Stipulation to Extend Non-Expert and Expert Discovery Dates at 2 (April 7, 2017)).
In the parties’ April 20, 2017, Stipulation to Continue Deadlines for Settlement Conference
[] (Dkt. 94, “Stipulation”), and the April 25, 2017, New Stipulation for Short Continuance of
Settlement Conference [] (Dkt. 96, “New Stipulation”), the parties contend that “Judge Segal
proposed scheduling [a settlement conference] for April 7, 2017,” which “some of the parties and
insurance representatives” could not attend, (Dkt. 94, Stipulation at 2), and that “[d]espite
numerous good faith attempts to find a date that worked for Judge Segal and the others, it
appears that a date in June is the earliest date that would work for everyone.” (Id.; Dkt. 96, New
Stipulation at 2). The parties seek to hold a settlement conference before a private mediator on
May 17, 2017, (see Dkt. 94, Stipulation at 2; Dkt. 96, New Stipulation at 2), but have not identified
the name of that private mediator or confirmed whether a deposit holding the May 17, 2017, date
with that unnamed private mediator has been made. (See, generally, Dkt. 94, Stipulation; Dkt. 96,
New Stipulation).
Based on For the foregoing, IT IS ORDERED THAT:
1. The parties’ Stipulations (Document Nos. 94 and 96) are rejected. The parties shall
comply with all the deadlines set forth in the Court’s Order of March 23, 2017 (Dkt. 93).
2. Lead counsel and a representative for each party knowledgeable about the parties’
efforts to conduct settlement proceedings and authorized to make decisions on behalf of each
party shall attend a hearing on Thursday, May 25, 2017, at 10:00 a.m. in Courtroom 6D of the
