Case No.: 1:10-cv-00085 - JLT
ORDER RE THE GOVERNMENT’S STATUS
REPORT
(Doc. 203)

22
23

On September 24, 2013, the Court granted the Government’s request to vacate a hearing on a

24

contempt citation which challenged Defendant’s compliance with the consent decree. (Doc. 201)

25

Currently, the government reports that there appears to be good effort at compliance, at least by the

26

retained, Independent Manager, as described in the consent decree. (Doc. 203 at 3) Thus, the

27

government requests the contempt action to be stayed until December 20, 2013. Id. However, as noted

28
1

1

above, that contempt hearing was not stayed, it was vacated. Thus, the request to stay it now cannot

2

be granted. In the event such an action need be brought in the future, any party may do so.

3

Moreover, no further status reports are required by the Court. The Court is assured the

4

government and Plaintiffs will monitor compliance with the consent decree and involve the Court only

5

as needed. The Court presumes the same as to Defendant.
