This matter is set for a settlement conference on February 6, 2013, at 11:00 a.m. In the order

15

setting the settlement conference, the Court stated that if, after reviewing the parties’ confidential

16

settlement conference statements, it appeared unlikely that the parties would be able to reach an

17

agreement, the Court might convert the settlement conference to a telephonic hearing to discuss its

18

concerns.

19

The Court is now in receipt of both parties’ confidential settlement conference statements

20

and after reviewing them, the parties appear to be fairly far apart. Therefore, the Court ORDERS

21

as follows:

22

1.

23

The settlement conference is converted to a telephonic hearing to be held at 11:00
a.m. on February 6, 2013;

24

2.

Plaintiff and Defendant’s counsel shall each call in separately to [phone];

25

3.

As long as Defendant’s counsel has some settlement authority, counsel for the

26

California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation is relieved from having to

27

appear for the hearing; and

28

///

4.

The Clerk’s Office shall serve a courtesy copy of this order on the Litigation Office

2

at Sierra Conservation Center and the Litigation Office is requested to ensure that

3

Plaintiff has access to telephone on which a staff member may initiate the call

4

to the above number at 11:00 a.m. on February 6, 2013.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
