ORDER DISCHARGING SANCTIONS

United States District Court
Northern District of California

11

CITY AND COUNTY OF SAN
FRANCISCO, et al.,

Re: Dkt. No. 151

Defendants.

12
13

On January 10, 2014, the parties appeared before the Honorable Laurel Beeler for a further

14

settlement conference and ultimately reached a settlement in this matter. Dkt. No. 162.

15

Previously, on November 4, 2013, the Court found that sanctions against Plaintiffs' counsel, Keith

16

Oliver, were warranted, but indicated that it held its ruling in abeyance until the end of this action,

17

at which time it would consider Mr. Oliver's subsequent compliance with Court orders. Dkt. No.

18

151. Although the Court notes that substantial effort by defense counsel and Judge Beeler was

19

expended attempting to communicate with Mr. Oliver in advance of the settlement hearing, given

20

Mr. Oliver's participation in the settlement conference, the Court DISCHARGES its prior

21

sanctions ruling against Mr. Oliver.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
