This is an action brought under the Americans with Disabilities Act. On October 10, 2012, the
18
parties submitted a joint status update that informed the court that they are continuing their
19
settlement discussions with mediator Daniel Bowling. 10/10/2012 Status Report, ECF No. 27.
20
Because things apparently were going well and the parties were in the process of preparing drafts of
21
settlement documents, the court decided not to set an initial case management conference at that
22
time. 10/10/2012 Order, ECF No. 28. Instead, the court ordered the parties to submit another status
23
update no later than November 12, 2012, describing the current status of the case. Id.
24
On November 26, 2012, the parties filed their updated status report. 11/26/2012 Status Report,
25
ECF No. 29. In it, the parties stated that, while things were still going well, certain scheduling
26
conflicts had prevented them from completing the settlement process. Id. at 3. Accordingly, the
27
court again declined to set an initial case management conference at this time ordered the parties to
28
submit another status update no later than January 18, 2012 that described the current status of the

As ordered, the parties filed another status update on January 18, 2013. 1/18/2013 Status Report,

ECF No. 32. They stated that they are “very close to confirming an agreement on the equitable
4
relief” and have exchanged counteroffers regarding Plaintiff’s monetary demand. Id. at 2. As the
5
parties’ requested, the court had set an initial case management conference in March 2013.

1/24/2013 Order, ECF No. 33.

On March 21, 2013, the parties filed another status update. 3/21/2013 Status Report, ECF No.
34. The parties stated that they “have agreed to all equitable relief, have exchanged settlement
9
agreements comments and are close to an agreement on language details, and have made significant
10
progress on their monetary differences.” As such, the parties requested more time to allow them to
11
reach a settlement through the mediation process.
