Notice of ADR Conference
Mon 11/27 2:00 PM
ELECTRONIC NOTICE of ADR Conference. The Alternative Dispute Resolution Hearing has been set for 1/23/2024 10:00 AM in Remote Proceeding : Boston before Magistrate Judge Marianne B. Bowler. TRIAL COUNSEL and ALL NAMED PLAINTIFFS AND DEFENDANTS are ORDERED to be present and to have full settlement authority UNLESS EXCUSED BY THE COURT VIA MOTION. A brief mediation memorandum in double spaced format, addressing both the merits of the case and the filing party's settlement position should be submitted to the court via email as an attachment to maria_simeone@mad.uscourts.gov THREE BUSINESS DAYS before the hearing. The mediation memo should be marked "Confidential - Not for Docketing" and is not to be served upon opposing parties. It shall be understood (a) that all parties and counsel will participate in this court-sponsored mediation in good faith and with the interest of settling the matter on mutually acceptable terms, (b) that the entire mediation process, including all communications during any in-person, video or audio part thereof, is confidential, (c) that all statements made during the course of mediation are privileged settlement discussions, made without prejudice to any party's legal position, and inadmissible for any purpose in any legal proceeding, (d) that no party, participant, or representative shall seek in any proceeding to hereafter compel the mediator to testify and/or produce any document with respect to the mediation, and (e) that all parties, counsel and other participants agree that, by participating in this court-sponsored mediation, they are bound by these conditions and shall keep confidential all communications exchanged during the mediation process. This hearing will be held in a remote proceeding unless the parties jointly agree to proceed in person at which point the mediation can then be converted to an in person proceeding. Counsel shall review the Zoom process and technical procedures with their clients and conduct a successful test run prior to the date of the mediation to ensure accessibility. Counsel are asked to accommodate this date. In the event this date poses a serious conflict, or any party believes that the case is not ripe for mediation, please do NOT contact the Courtroom Deputy directly regarding mediation scheduling; instead, the parties are to confer promptly and file on CM/ECF a motion to cancel the mediation or to continue the mediation, as appropriate. In the case of motions to continue the mediation, the parties should include therein several proposed dates for which all counsel and principals are available. (Simeone, Maria) |
