Counsel have previously notified the Court that its resolution of these motions may facilitate settlement. The Court accordingly will hold off se tting a trial date until Friday, February 28, 2020, to give counsel a meaningful opportunity to renew and complete settlement discussions. If no settlement has been reported as of that date, counsel are to notify the Court by letter that day of this fact. The letter should also set out counsel's estimate of the length of a jury trial into damages in this matter. The Court's law clerk will then be in touch with counsel to schedule such a trial, which the Court expects most likely would be held in late spring. (Signed by Judge Paul A.
