ORDER AFTER NOTICE OF SETTLEMENT

(Doc. 22)

On April 27, 2016, the parties notified the Court they had reached a settlement of the matter. (Doc. 22) They request the Court "retain jurisdiction"1 for 120 days during which time they will move the Court for approval of the minors' compromise. Id. at 1-2. They estimate that the petition for approval of the minors' compromise will be filed by May 2, 20162. Thus, the Court ORDERS:

1. The motion for the minors' compromise SHALL be filed no later than May 6, 20163; 2. All other pending dates, conferences and hearings are VACATED and any other pending motions are ordered TERMINATED.

Failure to comply with this order may result in the imposition of sanctions, including the dismissal of the action.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

FootNotes


1. This is unnecessary because the Court does not lose jurisdiction merely because the parties have agreed to settle the case. See L.R. 202(b)(2).
2. The motion for approval of the minors' compromise must be filed before District Judge Dale A. Drozd. Judge Drozd hears such matters on the first and third Tuesdays at 9:30 a.m. in Courtroom 5.
3. The Court will set the deadline by which to file the dismissal documents if the minors' compromise is approved.
