ORDER RE: SETTLEMENT AND
DISPOSITION
17
Plaintiff filed a “Notice of Settlement” on November 17, 2011,
18
in which he states, “a settlement of the present matter has been reached
19
and . . . Plaintiff anticipates [the settlement] will be finalized
20
within the next 30 days.” (ECF No. 8.)
21
Therefore, a dispositional document shall be filed no later
22
than December 19, 2011. Failure to respond by this deadline may be
23
construed as consent to dismissal of this action without prejudice, and
24
a dismissal order could be filed. See E.D. Cal. R. 160(b) (“A failure to
25
file dispositional papers on the date prescribed by the Court may be
26
grounds for sanctions.”).

the
Status
Conference
scheduled
for
hearing

The Status Conference will remain on calendar, because the
mere representation that a case has been settled does not justify
vacating a scheduling proceeding. Cf. Callie v. Near, 829 F.2d 888, 890
(9th Cir. 1987) (indicating that a representation that claims have been
settled does not necessarily establish the existence of a binding
settlement agreement).
