Defendants
On September 3, 2021, Magistrate Judge William G. Cobb granted Plaintiff’s motion to

10 reschedule the settlement conference. Judge Cobb asked Plaintiff’s counsel, Ms. Sull, and
11 defense counsel, Mr. Rands, to explore the options available for conducting the settlement
12 conference via video given Plaintiff’s custody status with Immigration and Customs
13 Enforcement (ICE). The parties were instructed to contact courtroom administrator Karen
14 Walker regarding the options and to provide proposed dates for the settlement conference. (ECF
15 No. 136.)

Ms. Walker did not hear from the parties regarding logistics of a settlement conference or

17 proposed dates. This case was subsequently reassigned to the undersigned after Judge Cobb’s
18 retirement. (ECF No. 137.)
