The Court has reviewed the parties’ joint pretrial conference statement, which

United States District Court
Northern District of California

11

indicates that the parties have not participated in the mandatory settlement conference

12

ordered by the Court at the September 12, 2016 case management conference. The Court

13

has also spoken with the magistrate judge to whom this case was referred for settlement

14

and confirmed that the scheduled February 28, 2017 settlement conference date was

15

vacated at the request of the parties – one day before it was scheduled to occur – and that

16

the parties have yet to re-schedule the date, despite being offered several available dates by

17

the magistrate judge’s courtroom deputy.

18

With good cause appearing, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the pretrial conference

19

and trial dates, along with related deadlines, are VACATED. The parties shall

20

immediately contact the courtroom deputy for Magistrate Judge James to schedule a

21

settlement conference. No later than seven days after the Clerk’s notice setting the

22

settlement conference has been filed, the parties shall file a joint statement proposing new

23

trial dates at least three weeks after the date of the settlement conference.
