Case No. 2:18-cv-00158-JAD-NJK
STIPULATION TO VACATE
SETTLEMENT CONFERENCE
Defendants.

COME NOW the parties, by and through their attorneys of record, and hereby stipulate and
18
request that the settlement conference currently set for 1:00 p.m. on June 2, 2021 be

vacated and/or canceled.
The Court’s Order of May 5, 2021 provided that “[a]ny request to change the date of the
settlement conference must be […] filed within 14 days of the issuance of this order[] […] and
must include at least five alternate dates[.]”
24
Although this stipulation is several days outside the window provided by the Order for
25
changing the date of the conference, it has recently become clear to the parties that further
26

negotiation will be fruitless and that the case will not be settled. Over the past month, the
parties have exchanged settlement proposals, but have been unable to reach an agreement and
Case 2:18-cv-00158-JAD-NJK Document 84 Filed 06/02/21 Page 2 of 2

do not believe they will do so. For this reason, no alternative dates for a settlement conference
2
are sought. Further, because the parties, after discussion, are convinced that any settlement

conference will be fruitless, it is in the interest of judicial economy, and in the interest of
saving litigation and travel expenses for the parties, for this Court to vacate and/or cancel the
currently-scheduled settlement conference.
THEREFORE, the parties respectfully request that this Court vacate and/or cancel the
settlement conference currently scheduled for 1:00 p.m. on June 2, 2021.
Dated this 2nd day of June, 2021.
