___________________________________/

17
The Court presided over two settlement conferences in this matter that took place on March
18
21 and March 22, 2011. On March 22, 2011, the parties reached a settlement agreement, the terms
19
of which were memorialized on the Court's FTR recording system. It appears that Plaintiff now
20
wishes to repudiate the settlement agreement. See Docket No. 32. On April 12, 2011, District Judge
21
Jeffrey White instructed this Court to address the enforcement of the settlement reached in this
22
matter, and prepare a Report and Recommendation regarding entry of judgment. See Docket No. 33.
23
The parties shall file briefs no later than May 13, 2011 setting forth their positions regarding
24
the enforceability of the settlement agreement reached in the March 22, 2011 proceeding. The briefs
25
shall be no longer than ten pages, and must not reveal any confidential communications from the
26
settlement conference sessions. See ADR Local Rule 7-5. If a party believes that a confidential
27
settlement communication is critical to the Court's consideration of this dispute, that party must first
28

1

seek the Court's permission to reveal the confidential information by explaining the nature of the

2

information and its importance to this matter. Such request shall be served, and filed under seal.

3

This Order serves as a specific sealing order pursuant to Local Rule 79-5(a).

4

Given an apparent conflict between Plaintiff and his counsel of record, (see Docket No. 32),

5

Plaintiff may wish to retain separate counsel to respond to this Order. The Court is aware that

6

Plaintiff has consulted with separate counsel in this case. Id. The Court is serving a copy of this

7

Order directly upon Plaintiff.
