Plaintiff(s),
ORDER REGARDING SETTLEMENT
CONFERENCE

v.
ATM OPERATING, INC., ET AL.,
Defendant(s).
_________________________________/

17

The court has reviewed the parties’ helpful settlement papers. There is one issue, and that is that

18

there is no clear demand-response now (just a recounting of the past course of demand-response and

19

a new position by Plaintiffs). See, e.g., Plaintiffs’ Statement at 10, Eclipse’s Statement at 9. Given

20

the relatively short time available on Monday and the fact that people are flying in for the settlement

21

process, the court suggests that it makes sense for counsel to talk by telephone no later than Friday

22

morning to see if they can provide a negotiating bracket that is closer to where they were (as

23

opposed to the clean slate that exists now). The court understands what Eclipse said in its statement,

24

and it is also true that not a lot of time has passed. In any event, the parties must send an informal

25

email to the court’s orders box at [e-mail] by Friday, December 14, 2012, at 3 p.m.

26

with the current demand and the defendants’ current response.

27

IT IS SO ORDERED.
