LUCY H. KOH, District Judge.
TO THE HONORABLE COURT:
Pursuant to the Parties' Third Joint CMS, ECF No. 42, filed on August 26, 2015, the Parties hereby give notice to the Court that they have reached a fully executed Settlement Agreement and Release ("Settlement Agreement") as of October 15, 2015, a true and correct copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A. As stated in their Settlement Agreement, Plaintiffs will file a motion for settlement class certification and related documents in conjunction with the Parties' motion for preliminary approval of the Settlement Agreement, which will be filed on or before November 30, 2015, forty-five (45) days subsequent to the full execution of the Settlement Agreement. The Parties will then pursue final approval in accordance with the procedures set forth on the Court's website, found at www.cand.uscourts.gov/ClassActionSettlementGuidence.
The Parties request that the Court issue an order suspending the litigation dates it set forth in its September 2, 2015 Case Management Order, ECF No. 43, so that the Parties can focus their attention and resources on seeking final approval of the Settlement Agreement.
PROPOSED ORDER
Having duly considered the Parties' Notice of Settlement and Request to Suspend Litigation Dates, it is ORDERED that the Parties should proceed as they indicate they will in order to pursue final approval of their Settlement Agreement and that the litigation dates set forth in the Court's September 2, 2015 Case Management Order are indefinitely suspended.
The Court makes the further orders stated below:
The Motion for Settlement Class Certification and the Motion for Preliminary Approval will be heard on February 18, 2016, at 1:30 p.m. The Motion for Preliminary Approval and accompanying proposed order should contain a comprehensive analysis of why the settlement meets the standards for preliminary approval. The December 16, 2015 case management conference remains as set.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
