The government’s Motion for Summary Judgment1 in this case is currently scheduled for a

16

hearing on June 27, 2011. On June 10, 2011, the government filed a Notice stating that the parties

17

have “reached an agreement in principal [sic] as to the settlement of this case,” and that “the lawyers

18

have signed the agreement.” (See Docket Item No. 20.) The government contends that the parties

19

are merely awaiting the signatures of the two claimants in this case, and that once those signatures

20

have been obtained, the government will lodge the settlement agreement and proposed judgment

21

with the Court for approval. (Id.) Finally, the government states that its Motion for Summary

22

Judgment scheduled for hearing on June 27, 2011 “can be taken off calendar.” (Id.)

23

Upon review, the Court finds good cause to VACATE the June 27, 2011 Hearing and orders

24

as follows:

25

(1)

The Motion for Summary Judgment shall be terminated.

(3)

On or before July 1, 2011, the parties shall file a Stipulated Dismissal in light of the

4

settlement. If the settlement is not finalized by this date, the parties shall file a Status

5

Conference Statement to update the Court on the progress of the settlement and how

6

much time is needed to reduce the settlement to a writing and bring this case to a

7

close.
