MR. BERNARD P. CORBINS,

Case No: C 10-2312 SBA

Plaintiff,

ORDER

7

vs.
8

UNITED AIRLINES, INC.,
9

Defendant.
10

12

On July 19, 2011, the Court entered a 30-day conditional dismissal of the action based

13

on the Certification of ADR Session which indicated that the mediator had “fully” settled the

14

action. Dkt. 37. On the same date, Plaintiff, who is acting pro se, filed a letter requesting the

15

Court to reopen the action because the settlement documentation has not been finalized or

16

executed.

17

Plaintiff’s request is premature. Under the terms of the Court’s conditional dismissal

18

order, if the parties are unable to finalize and execute their settlement agreement within 30

19

days, either party has the option of requesting that the Court extend the time-period during

20

which they can seek to reopen the action, or alternatively, to vacate the dismissal and reinstate

21

the action to the Court’s active civil calendar. Thus, Plaintiff has until August 18, 2011, to

22

seek to reopen the action in the event that the parties are unable to finalize and execute their

23

settlement agreement within that time-frame. Accordingly,

24

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT Plaintiff’s request to reopen the action is DENIED
without prejudice.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
Dated: July 21, 2011
