Bankruptcy Case No. 08-12264 (CSS)
ADV No. 11-52317
BAP No. 15-57

C. A. No. 15-935-RGA

RECOMMENDATION
At Wilmington this 3rd day of November, 2015.
WHEREAS, pursuant to paragraph 2(a) of the Procedures to Govern
Mediation of Appeals from the United States Bankruptcy Court for this District dated
September 11, 2012, the court conducted an initial review, which included information
from counsel, to determine the appropriateness of mediation in this matter;
WHEREAS, as a result of the above screening process, the issues
involved in this case are not amenable to mediation and mediation at this stage would
not be a productive exercise, a worthwhile use of judicial resources nor warrant the
expense of the process.
THEREFORE, IT IS RECOMMENDED that, pursuant to paragraph 2(a)
Procedures to Govern Mediation of Appeals from the United States Bankruptcy Court

for this District and 28 U.S.C. § 636(b), this matter and the companion matter 15-934RGA be withdrawn from the mandatory referral for mediation and proceed through the
appellate process of this Court. The parties were advised of their right to file objections
to this Recommendation pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B), FED. R. CIV. P. 72(a) and
D. DEL. LR 72.1.
The parties request that the briefing schedule on this appeal be entered as
follows:
Appellants’ opening brief

30 days after the date Appellees file
their designation of additional item for
the appeal record

Appellees’ answering brief

45 days after filing of the opening brief
