all of the claims against all of the parties were resolved in this case. However, the filing of closing
documents was delayed while the United States attempted to sell certain foreclosed property. See
[Doc. 107]. On July 18, 2018, however, Chief Judge Johnson approved the sale of the property.
[Doc. 117]. IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that no later than March 6, 2019, the United States
file a report explaining the status of case and when it expects to be able to file closing documents
to effectuate the administrative closure of this case.
