PROCEEDINGS: (IN CHAMBERS) ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE RE FAILURE
TO RESPOND TO OSC AND FAILURE TO FILE REQUIRED
FINAL PRETRIAL CONFERENCE DOCUMENTS

On June 17, 2013, the Court issued an Order to Show Cause re Settlement
Negotiations (“OSC”). (Doc. 125.) The parties were ordered to either (1) inform the
Court that they had participated in a settlement conference or mediation after this Court’s
ruling on Defendants’ Motion for Summary Judgment or (2) if such settlement
negotiations had not occurred, “contact their selected panel mediator, Joseph Markowitz,
within the next five days to schedule a date for a further settlement negotiation” and
“inform the Court of the date selected for the negotiation within three days of setting the
date.” (Id.) It has now been nine days since this OSC was issued and the parties have
failed to comply.
Further, the Final Pretrial Conference in this case is scheduled for July 12, 2013.
The parties were required to file Memoranda of Contentions of Fact and Law by Friday,
June 21, 2013. (Order on Jury Trial at 3, Doc. 48 (“The Memoranda of Contentions of
Fact and Law will be served no later than twenty-one (21) calendar days before the Final
Pretrial Conference.”.)
Accordingly, the Court orders the parties to show cause why the Court should not
dismiss this matter and/or issue sanctions for the failure to reply to the Court’s OSC and
timely file the referenced trial documents. No later than June 28, 2013, at 12:00 p.m.,
counsel shall comply with the Court’s June 17 OSC, file their Memoranda of Contentions
of Fact and Law if the parties are intending to proceed to trial, and provide a separate
written response explaining their disregard of the Court’s Orders.
