_____________________________________/
The parties to the above-captioned action are scheduled to participate in a settlement conference

with the undersigned on November 21, 2011. The parties submitted settlement conference

18

statements as required by this court’s order dated September 15, 2011. See 09/15/2011 Order, ECF

No. 44.1 Defendants, however, failed to inform the court of their litigation costs, as they are

20

required to do. See id. at 4. In addition, although Defendants mentioned in their settlement

21

conference statement that “Bank of America, N.A. has made at least two offers to pay relocation

22

expenses to assist Plaintiff in moving from the Property,” they failed to state how much they offered

23

to pay Plaintiff on these occasions.

24

Accordingly, the court directs Defendants to state their litigation costs and prior settlement offer

25

amounts to the court either in a revised settlement conference statement that is served on Plaintiff or

26

in a separate confidential statement that is not served on Plaintiff. See id. Defendants shall submit
