15

On August 17, 2011, the parties in this case informed the Court that the above-entitled matter

16

has reached a settlement. (See Docket Item No. 20.) On August 18, 2011, in light of the settlement,

17

the Court vacated all trial and pretrial dates and ordered the parties to file a stipulated dismissal

18

pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(a) on or before September 23, 2011. (hereafter,

19

“August 18 Order,” Docket Item No. 21.) The Court set October 3, 2011 at 9 a.m. for a hearing on

20

the Order to Show Cause re. Settlement, in the event a dismissal was not filed by September 23,

21

2011. (See id.)

22

On September 23, 2011, pursuant to the Court’s August 18 Order, the parties filed a Joint

23

Statement in Response to the Order to Show Cause re. Settlement. (See Docket Item No. 22.) In

24

their Joint Statement, the parties contend that they have “reached agreement on virtually all points”

25

of their settlement, but are still “working jointly to obtain [certain] third-party releases [and]

26

assignments” that “must be obtained in order to finalize the settlement.” (Id. at 1.) The parties

27

contend that they anticipate that they will “obtain the necessary releases [and] assignments within 30

28

days.” (Id.)

1

In light of the parties’ contentions, the Court finds good cause to CONTINUE the hearing on

2

the Order to Show Cause re. Settlement to November 14, 2011 at 9 a.m. On or before November

3

4, 2011, the parties shall file a joint statement in response to the Order to Show Cause. The joint

4

statement shall set forth the status of the activities of the parties for finalizing the settlement and how

5

much additional time is requested to finalize and file the dismissal. If a voluntary dismissal is filed

6

as ordered, the Order to Show Cause hearing will be automatically vacated.

7
8

Failure to comply with any part of this Order will be deemed sufficient grounds to dismiss
this action.
