1 auditor completed analyzing the documents and prepared an audit report.
2
3.
Prior to the November 2, 2011 mediation, Defendants made an offer to Plaintiffs,
3 apprising Plaintiffs of Defendants’ poor financial condition and intent to discontinue operations.
4 Following a teleconference with the Mediator, the parties (and the Mediator) determined the
5 mediation should not go forward as scheduled, but that Plaintiffs be afforded additional time to
6 review the offer and attempt to negotiate with Defendants directly.
7
4.
Financial documents to support Defendants’ claim of financial hardship were
8 produced by Defendants.
9
5.
The matter has now resolved, with a Notice of Settlement filed on or about May 3,
10 2012. The parties are working on settlement documents and expect the documents to be executed
11 and payment made within the next few weeks.
12
6.
There is nothing to discuss at a Case Management Conference at the present time.
13
7.
We therefore jointly request that the Case Management Conference either be
14 vacated or continued for 30 days to allow the parties to conclude the settlement. Plaintiffs will
15 thereafter dismiss the action with prejudice.
