STIPULATION AND
PROPOSED ORDER
REGARDING SETTLEMENT
CONFERENCE
SETTLEMENT CONFERENCE
HEARING DATE: AUGUST 8, 2012
TIME: 10:00 A.M.
COURTROOM 9
HONORABLE DENNIS L. BECK
Claimants Samy M. Hauter and Bob M. Hauter, and the United States of America, by and through their undersigned attorneys, hereby stipulate as follows:
1. This stipulation is executed by all parties who have appeared in and are affected by this action.
2. The parties are requesting that the Settlement Conference currently set for August 8, 2012, at 10:00 a.m., before Honorable Magistrate Judge Dennis L. Beck, be vacated. The initial agreement to set such an early and optimistic Settlement Conference hearing, was made with the understanding that the parties would be able to conduct initial discovery prior to the Settlement Conference to ensure the Settlement Conference would result in a meaningful discussion of the case. However, in the short amount of time allotted, the parties have been unable to conduct the necessary discovery and now request that the currently scheduled Settlement Conference be vacated, with the understanding that the parties may request to have a Settlement Conference placed back on the Court's calendar in the future.
3. The parties hereby request and stipulate to remove from the Court's calendar, the Settlement Conference currently scheduled for August 8, 2012, at 10:00 a.m., before Honorable Magistrate Judge Dennis L. Beck.
Respectfully submitted,
BENJAMIN B. WAGNER
