ORDER
/
On July 11, 2012, the transcript of the further settlement conference proceedings
15
held on July 5, 2012 was filed in the record. (Dkt. No. 582.) Although a settlement of the
16
principal terms was reached on the record at the settlement conference, the settlement is
17
expressly contingent on final approval by the Associate Attorney General. Also, there were
18
details surrounding the principal terms which needed to be finalized. Therefore, the parties were
19
directed to obtain a signed, written settlement agreement by July 11, 2012 [or its disapproval].
20
(Dkt. No. 577.) However, the United States recently requested a seven-day extension until July
21
18, 2012 to obtain that approval in Washington D.C., and apparently, to finalize the myriad
22
details surrounding the settlement itself. (Dkt. No. 581.)
23
In light of the above, the court finds good cause to seal the transcript of the
24
settlement conference proceedings recording the principal terms of settlement until execution of
25
the final settlement agreement by all parties.
26
Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT the transcript of the settlement
1
1
proceedings in this matter (dkt. no. 582) is SEALED until execution of the final, written
2
settlement agreement by all parties.
