October 26, 2022 Filing 26 Minute Entry for proceedings held before Court Attorney Andrew Wiseman: Settlement Conference held on 10/26/2022 during which the parties reached a settlement agreement. [6:45] (arw)
October 5, 2022 Set Deadlines and Hearings: Settlement Conference set for 10/26/2022 at 9:00 AM before Court Attorney Andrew Wiseman. (arw)
September 19, 2022 Opinion or Order Filing 25 ** TEXT ONLY ORDER **On June 23, 2022, defendant filed a motion to compel arbitration (dkt. #10 ), which came under advisal to the court on June 30, 2022 when plaintiff filed her opposition (dkts. #13 - #15 ). On July 21, 2022, defendant asked the court to abstain from ruling on this motion while the parties explored settlement (dkt. #16 ). The court granted that request (dkt. 17 ). On July 27, 2022, the parties submitted a proposed schedule as part of their Rule 26(f) report, which did not request a discovery stay for any reason. (dkt. #18 ), and at the August 3, 2022 telephonic preliminary pretrial conference the court gave the parties the dates that they had requested. Compare dkt. #18 to dkt. #19 . Settlement has eluded the parties, and on September 12, defendant moved to stay discovery pending a ruling on its motion to compel (dkts. #20 & #21 ), which plaintiff opposes, dkt. #24 . There will be no discovery stay. Although the court understands why defendant asked the court to tread water on the motion to compel arbitration, if the court had kept that motion to its UA list, then the automatic 12-week stay on discovery (running from June 30) would have ended three days hence, on September 22, 2022. Even so, we could have built a cushion into the schedule as a fallback, but the parties did not ask for any sort of a discovery stay in their 26(f) report to the court, and the dates set by the court in reliance on this will not bear a stay of the length requested by defendant at this juncture. Therefore, defendant's motion is denied. Signed by Magistrate Judge Stephen L. Crocker on 9/19/2022. (voc)
September 19, 2022 Filing 24 Brief in Opposition by Plaintiff Janelle L. Zook re: #20 Motion to Stay filed by Credit Acceptance Corporation (Lyons, Thomas)
September 12, 2022 Opinion or Order Filing 23 ** TEXT ONLY ORDER ** In support of its motion to stay discovery (dkt. #20 ), defendant in its brief acknowledges that this court previously granted defendant's motion to stay consideration of defendant's motion to compel arbitration, but defendant fails to acknowledge that this stay remains in place because no one has asked the court to lift it. The court will deem defendant's latest motion to include such a request, to which plaintiff may respond by September 19, 2022. Defendant's deadline to respond to plaintiff's pending discovery requests is stayed until the court rules on defendant's instant motion for a longer stay. Signed by Magistrate Judge Stephen L. Crocker on 9/12/2022. (voc)
