ORDER DIRECTING PARTIES TO
MEET AND CONFER AND
SUBMIT AN UPDATED JOINT
STATUS REPORT
TRAVELERS INDEMNITY
COMPANY; et al.,
14
Case No. 2:14-cv-01957 BJR
Defendants.

16
On August 9, 2018, the Court entered the Order Granting … Joint Stipulated
17
Motion to Modify Case Schedule (Dkt. No. 698). Among other things, that Order set
18
deadlines for the three proposed “phases” for the filing of dispositive motions; directed
19
the parties to schedule mediation within 60 days of the date of the Order; and modified
20
and scheduled the remaining discovery, pretrial, and trial dates.
21
King County filed two motions for summary judgment by the deadline of the
22
first phase for dispositive motions. However, no dispositive motions were filed before
23
the second phase deadline, March 1, 2019. Furthermore, the Court has also entered
24
several orders granting parties’ motions to approve settlements, but the parties have not
25
advised the Court of the status of the mediation that presumably took place last fall.
