PLAINTIFF’S COUNSEL’S RESPONSE TO COURT’S ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE

Plaintiff’s counsel responds to the Court’s Order to Show Cause, and states:

1. Plaintiff’s counsel apologizes to the Court for a failure to finalize a Joint

Scheduling Conference Report and Order and to file same with the Court in accordance

with the Court’s Order.

2. The parties did exchange a number of drafts of the Joint Scheduling Report

and proposed Order but despite efforts to finalize it did not do so. There was some delay

in effecting service on Defendant SARAH KELLEN, who is believed to have been avoiding

service, and this accounts for part of the delay in filing the Report and Proposed Order,

although it certainly does not excuse it.

3. The parties have been involved in settlement discussions for some time, and

reached a resolution of the claims in this and the State court companion case this week,

and all claims have been resolved. Defendant has filed a Joint Stipulation and proposed

Order indicating the resolution of this case.
