Plaintiffs,

Order to Show Cause RE:
Failure to File Mediation
Report

v.
Todd Silverstein, et al.,
Defendants.

On April 26, 2016, the parties elected Victor Bianchini to serve as the Panel
Mediator in this case. (Notice of Assignment of Panel Mediator (“Notice”) (Doc.
37) at 1.) The Notice states the mediation should be “completed no later than . . .
forty-five days prior to the final pretrial conference, consistent with . . . [Local Rule]
16-15.2.” (Id.) Per the Court’s Scheduling Order, the pretrial conference will be
held on July 11, 2016. (Order (Doc. 27) at 1.) Accordingly, the parties should have
completed their mediation by May 27, 2016. (See Notice at 1.) As the Court
received no joint mediation report, the Court ORDERS the parties to show cause,
no later than June 13, 2016, why sanctions should not be imposed for failure to file a
joint mediation report timely. This order may also be discharged by filing a notice of
settlement.
IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated:

United States District Judge
