                Minute Entry for proceedings held before Magistrate Judge Erin Wilder-Doomes: Telephone Status Conference held on 1/24/2017. Counsel first discussed the status of efforts to memorialize the agreement in principle they reached at the settlement conference held with the court on December 12, 2016. Counsel advised the court that they have reached an impasse and will not be able to execute a written settlement agreement. Counsel agreed that they anticipated being able to meet the deadlines contained in the Amended Limited Scheduling Order. The court discussed with counsel whether it would be beneficial to scheduled monthly telephone status conferences in this matter. At this time, counsel agree they will continue to confer in an effort to resolve issues without court intervention. (SGO) (Entered: 01/24/2017)
