Filing 189

ORDER: On Friday, October 16, 2020, the Honorable Valerie E. Caproni assigned this matter to my docket for settlement. In light of the Court's busy calendar, settlement conferences must generally be scheduled at least six to eight weeks in advance. The Court will likely be unable to accommodate last-minute requests for settlement conferences, and the parties should not anticipate that litigation deadlines will be adjourned in response to late requests for settlement conferences. A s soon as practicable, the parties are directed to contact Courtroom Deputy Rachel Slusher, [e-mail], to schedule a settlement conference for a time when they believe it would be productive. So Ordered. (Signed by Magistrate Judge Sarah Netburn on 10/20/2020) (js)
