ORDER

GEORGE FOLEY, JR., Magistrate Judge.

This matter is before the Court on Defendant's Motion to Continue Pretrial Settlement Conference (ECF No. 59), filed on January 16, 2018. Defendant requests that the Court reschedule the settlement conference set for February 13, 2018 due to the Nevada State Tort Manager's unavailability and represents that Plaintiff consented to a continuance. The Court finds good cause to grant Defendant's Motion to Continue Pretrial Settlement Conference.

The settlement conference is hereby rescheduled to commence at 9:00 a.m. on March 1, 2018, in the chambers of the undersigned United States Magistrate Judge, Room 3099, Lloyd D. George United States Courthouse, 333 Las Vegas Boulevard South, Las Vegas, Nevada.

All counsel of record who will be participating in the trial and who have full authority to settle this case, and all parties appearing pro se, if any, and all individual parties must be present. In the case of non-individual parties, counsel of record shall arrange for an officer or representative with binding authority to settle this matter up to the full amount of the claim or last demand made to be present for the duration of the conference.

If any party is subject to coverage by an insurance carrier, then a representative of the insurance carrier with authority to settle this matter up to the full amount of the claim or last demand made must also be present for the duration of the settlement conference.

A request for an exception to the above attendance requirements must be promptly filed and served on all parties, however, no later than at least fourteen (14) days prior to the settlement conference. Counsel of record, individual parties, and a fully-authorized representative shall appear in person unless the court enters an order granting a request for exception.

PREPARATION FOR SETTLEMENT CONFERENCE

In preparation for the settlement conference, the attorneys for each party shall submit a confidential settlement conference statement for the Court's in camera review. If attached exhibits are voluminous, they should be separately tabbed. Failure to do so may result in the documents being returned with the requirement that they be properly tabbed. The settlement conference statement shall contain the following:

1. A brief statement of the nature of the action.

2. A concise summary of the evidence that supports your theory of the case, including information which documents your damages claims. Please attach to your statement any documents or exhibits which are relevant to key factual or legal issues, including selected pages from deposition transcripts or responses to other discovery requests.

3. An analysis of the key issues involved in the litigation.

4. A discussion of the strongest points in your case, both legal and factual, and a frank discussion of the weakest points as well. The Court expects you to present a candid evaluation of the merits of your case.

5. A further discussion of the strongest and the weakest points in your opponent's case, but only to the extent that they are more than simply the converse of the weakest and the strongest points in your case.

6. The history of settlement discussion, if any, which have occurred in this case. Please detail the demands and offers which have been made, and the reasons they have been rejected.

7. The settlement proposal that you believe would be fair.

8. The settlement proposal that you would honestly be willing to make in order to conclude this matter and stop the expense of litigation.

The settlement conference statements shall be received in my chambers — Room 3099 — not later than February 22, 2018. DO NOT SERVE A COPY ON OPPOSING COUNSEL. DO NOT DELIVER OR MAIL COPIES TO THE CLERK'S OFFICE.

The purpose of the statement is to assist the undersigned Magistrate Judge in preparing for and conducting the settlement conference. In order to facilitate a meaningful conference, your utmost candor in responding to all of the above-listed questions is required. The settlement conference statement will be seen by no one except the undersigned. If this case does not settle, the settlement conference statement will not be disclosed to the judge who ultimately presides over the trial. Each statement will be securely maintained in my chambers, and will be destroyed following the conference. Accordingly,

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Defendant's Motion to Continue Pretrial Settlement Conference (ECF No. 59) is granted.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the settlement conference is hereby rescheduled to commence at 9:00 a.m. on March 1, 2018, in the chambers of the undersigned United States Magistrate Judge.
