January 30, 2019 Opinion or Order Filing 15 INACTIVE DOCKET ORDER Having been advised by counsel that in the cases listed on the attached Exhibits A-D, the plaintiffs and all named defendants, as listed in the captions of those cases on the docket sheet, have reached a settlement. The Court finds it unnecessary to conduct further proceedings or to keep these cases on the active docket and ORDERS as follows: 1) all discovery deadlines are continued until further order of the Court, 2) that the Clerk place the case(s) listed on the attached Exhibit(s) on the pending inactive docket, 3) Plaintiff(s) and defendant may submit a Joint Motion to Dismiss with prejudice on or before 4/29/2019; if settlements are not finalized and dismissal orders are not submitted by then, any case remaining on an inactive docket will be moved to the active docket and placed on a shortened Docket Control Order. It is not necessary for the parties to submit one dismissal that includes all defendants. If a plaintiff(s) and a defendant have completed the settlement process and finalized everything necessary to dismiss the defendant, then the plaintiff(s) and that particular defendant may submit a Joint Motion to Dismiss for that particular defendant. The Court will reinstate any case on the attached Exhibits A-D to the active docket if one of the parties, on motion, shows good cause for such reinstatement. Such motion shall be made within 5 days of rejection of the settlement. The court notes that in some cases counsel have represented that they are authorized by the plaintiffs on the attached exhibits to act on the plaintiffs behalf with respect to settlement matters. Once settlements are finalized, dismissal orders must be signed by counsel of record. The Clerk is DIRECTED to place Inactive flags only for defendants who have not already been dismissed and link this Order to the Proposed Inactive Docket Order filed at ECF No. 7166.
