Plaintiff alleges that while on Defendant's premises, he tripped on a planter and fell, allegedly sustaining injuries as a result. Plaintiff has brought causes of action for: (1) Negligence; and (2) Negligent Hiring, Training, and/or Supervision.

On June 15, 2018, Plaintiff commenced this action in the Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County, State of Nevada, captioned John Charles Asmussen v.

The parties submitted a Stipulation to vacate the current trial setting which was executed as an Order on February 7, 2019 (Doc. #27). While preparing the settlement documentation, Plaintiff filed a Notice of Bankruptcy (Doc. #28). On April 16, 2019, a Final Decree was filed in Plaintiff's Chapter 7 bankruptcy matter, thereby terminating the Plaintiff's bankruptcy matter. See Case No. 18-17492-abl (Doc. #27).
