February 5, 2019 Opinion or Order Filing 30 MINUTE entry before the Honorable Maria Valdez: By agreement of the parties, with approval of the Court, This case is tentatively set to 3/13/19 at 2:00 p.m. in Courtroom 1041 for settlement conference. Counsel for plaintiff with advise the Court by 5:00 p.m. today if the date works for their client. Judge Valdez requires full compliance with the Court's Standing Order on Settlement Conference found on Judge Valdez's website available at www.ilnd.uscourts.gov, or the parties can contact courtroom deputy, Lisa Provine, at (312)408-5135 for a copy. Failure to comply with the provisions of the Court's Standing Order may result in the unilateral cancellation of the settlement conference by the Court. Absent leave from the Court, cancellation will result if the Plaintiff fails to submit to chambers copies of the settlement letters 21 days prior to the settlement conference. THE FACT THAT A SETTLEMENT CONFERENCE HAS BEEN SCHEDULED, DOES NOT MEAN THAT THE PARTIES SHOULD STOP ENGAGING IN SETTLEMENT DISCUSSIONS AMONG THEMSELVES. The Court finds that too often the parties put settlement talks on hold until the settlement conference with the Magistrate Judge. The Court expects that many cases can be resolved among the parties without the need for court-supervised mediation. If your informal discussions are unsuccessful, the Court will conduct the conference but will expect the parties to apprise her of the status of their ongoing settlement discussions. Because of the volume of settlement conferences conducted by Judge Valdez, once a settlement conference date has been agreed upon, no continuance will be granted without a motion showing extreme hardship. The status hearing set for 2/5/19 at 10:00 a.m. is hereby stricken, and no appearance is required. Mailed notice (lp, )
