On March 11, 2014, the Court ordered plaintiff’s claims dismissed without prejudice,
in anticipation of the parties’ completing their settlement within 90 days. On June 4, 2014,
defendant filed an “Application Requesting the Case Be Restored to Calendar for Further
Proceedings,” in which it explains that, although “a majority of the settlement proceeds
were paid [by defendant] upon execution of the Release,” $11,702.92 has been withheld “to
allow plaintiff’s attorney time to negotiate the final Medi-Cal lien amount.” (See Application
at 1.) Defendant states plaintiff’s attorney has requested “additional time” to complete such
negotiation (see id. at 2), and requests the Court either enter a deadline for plaintiff to
complete its negotiation with Medi-Cal, or enter an order allowing defendant to pay the
above-referenced balance directly to the Department of Healthcare Services.
In light of defendant’s filing, the parties are hereby DIRECTED to attend a status
conference on July 11, 2014 at 10:30 a.m., for purposes of (1) the parties’ apprising the

1

Court as to the status of their settlement and (2) whatever further action the Court deems

2

appropriate in light thereof. A joint status conference statement shall be filed no later than

3

July 3, 2014.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
