On June 12, 2013, the parties participated in a settlement conference before Magistrate

Judge Kendall J. Newman. Following settlements negotiations, the parties reached a verbal

22

settlement agreement and were directed to file dispositional documents within six months. See

ECF No. 86. The time for doing so has now expired.

The court notes that on November 20, 2013 defendants filed a document styled as a

25

response to a letter from plaintiff regarding the terms of the settlement. See ECF No. 89. Despite

26

this representation of settlement, no stipulation of dismissal or other dispositive documents have

been filed with the court.
