Case No. 2:13-cv-02156-JCM-NJK
ORDER DENYING MOTION FOR
SETTLEMENT CONFERENCE
(Docket No. 33)

16

Pending before the Court is a joint motion for a settlement conference. Docket No. 33. Whether

17

to set a settlement conference is a matter left to the broad discretion of the Court. See Local Rule 16-5.

18

In this instance, the settlement conference sought does not appear practicable for several reasons,

19

including that (a) the parties seek to include in that settlement conference possible resolution of the

20

underlying state court class action, a case over which this Court has no jurisdiction, and (b) it does not

21

appear feasible for this Court to schedule the settlement conference within 60 days, as requested by the

22

parties. Accordingly, the joint motion for a settlement conference is hereby DENIED without prejudice.

23

IT IS SO ORDERED.
