The court stayed this matter on May 12, 2016, pending the outcome of an
arbitration in a foreign jurisdiction. (Stay Order (Dkt. # 11).) On September 20, 2017,
the court extended the stay for an additional six months and ordered the parties to file a
joint status report no later than March 20, 2018. (Min. Entry (Dkt. # 19).) The parties
failed to file a status report as the court directed. (See generally Dkt.) Accordingly, the
