Defendant Randall Hale is currently unrepresented in this proceeding and has not participated
in this litigation in over a year. (See, e.g., ECF No. 236 at 5). Mr. Hale did not participate in the
submission of this Stipulation and Proposed Order. Given Mr. Hale’s failure to participate in this
litigation, Mr. Coston has moved for an order striking Mr. Hale’s answer and entering default
against him. (ECF No. 276). This motion is currently pending before the Court.
