MINUTE ORDER: Upon further consideration of Defendants' request to conduct jurisdictional discovery, it is hereby ORDERED that Defendants are authorized to serve written discovery requests limited to the questions of whether and, if so, how Plaintiff has suffered any cognizable injury in the District of Columbia.

It is further ORDERED that, if the parties would like the Court to refer the matter to a Magistrate Judge to assist in settlement discussions, the parties shall jointly contact the Deputy Clerk to convey that request, and the Court will promptly refer the matter for mediation.
