DALE E. HO, United States District Judge:
This case has been reassigned to the undersigned. All counsel must familiarize
themselves with the Court’s Individual Practices, which are available at

orders, dates, and deadlines shall remain in effect notwithstanding the case’s reassignment.
Additionally, by December 22, 2023, the parties are hereby ORDERED to file on ECF a
joint letter, described below, updating the Court on the status of the case. The joint letter shall

information currently reflected on the docket;
2.
A brief statement of the nature of the case and/or the principal defenses thereto;
3.
A brief explanation of why jurisdiction and venue lie in this Court. In any action
in which subject matter jurisdiction is founded on diversity of citizenship
pursuant to Title 28, United States Code, Section 1332, the letter must explain the
basis for the parties’ belief that diversity of citizenship exists. Where any party is
a corporation, the letter shall state both the place of incorporation and the
principal place of business. In cases where any party is a partnership, limited
partnership, limited liability company, or trust, the letter shall state the
citizenship of each of the entity’s members, shareholders, partners, and/or
trustees;
4.
A statement of all existing deadlines, due dates, and/or cut-off dates;

essential for the parties to engage in meaningful settlement negotiations;
9.
A brief description of the status of prior settlement discussions, without
disclosing exact offers and demands;
10.
A statement of whether the parties have discussed the use of alternate dispute
resolution mechanisms and indicating whether the parties believe that (a) a
settlement conference before a Magistrate Judge; (b) participation in the
District’s Mediation Program; and/or (c) retention of a privately retained
mediator would be appropriate and, if so, when in the case (e.g., within the next
60 days, after the deposition of plaintiff is completed, after the close of fact
discovery, etc.) the use of such a mechanism would be appropriate;
11.
An estimate of the length of trial; and
2
12.
Any other information that the parties believe may assist the Court in advancing

such letter or to appear, provided that a stipulation of discontinuance, voluntary dismissal, or
