On July 25, 2016, the parties in this action filed various motions in limine. (Doc. Nos.

18 108–118.) On September 16, 2016, the court issued an order ruling on those motions in limine.
19 (Doc. No. 142.) However, defendants’ motion in limine (Doc. No. 112) was not ruled upon due
20 to the parties’ request that they be allowed to meet and confer to determine if those motions
21 could be resolved without court intervention. In any event, on September 30, 2016, a settlement
22 of this action was reached. (Doc. No. 146.) On December 8, 2016, the minor plaintiffs G.M.,
23 J.M., and N.A.C. through their guardian ad litem Veronica Ayon filed a petition for approval of
24 minor’s compromise. (Doc. No. 161.) On December 16, 2016, the court granted the petition for
25 approval of minors’ compromise and issued an order approving the settlement. (Doc. No. 163.)
26 The remaining motion in limine still pending on the court’s docket (Doc. No. 112) has,
27 accordingly, been rendered moot.
