ASKO APPLIANCES INC,

No. C 10-01039 LB
ORDER CONTINUING NOVEMBER
17, 2011 TELEPHONIC HEARING
RE: THE PARTIES’ DISCOVERY
DISPUTE

Defendant(s).
_____________________________________/

16

The parties in this insurance subrogation action were referred to this court for discovery

17

purposes. Seeking judicial intervention to resolve a discovery dispute, the parties submitted two

18

joint letters (ECF Nos. 77, 82), and the court set a telephonic hearing to discuss the dispute for

19

November 17, 2011.

20

Today, the parties submitted a third joint letter that states that they have tentatively settled their

21

claims against each other. ECF No. 84. To give them time to execute a written settlement

22

agreement and to avoid what may prove to be an unnecessary hearing, the parties request that the

23

November 17, 2011 telephonic hearing be continued to December 8, 2011.

24

The court agrees with the parties that continuing the hearing makes sense. Accordingly, the

25

telephonic hearing on the parties’ discovery dispute, currently set for November 17, 2011 at 11:00

26

a.m., is CONTINUED to December 8, 2011 at 11:00 a.m. The parties shall file a brief status

27

update no later than December 2, 2011 to inform the court whether the parties have executed a

28

settlement agreement or whether the December 8, 2011 hearing is necessary.
