Fifth MOTION to Extend Scheduling Order Deadlines Following Mediation and Negotiation by Disability Rights Texas. (Attachments: # 1 Proposed Order)(Mitchell, Beth) (Entered: 02/09/2022)

Text Order GRANTING 31 Motion to Extend Scheduling Order Deadlines entered by Judge Xavier Rodriguez. It is hereby ordered that all deadlines in this case are extended for a period of sixty (60) days to allow the parties to engage in settlement discussions. The parties shall provide a joint advisory as to the status of this case and, if necessary, a new proposed scheduling order no later than April 11, 2022. Because the parties have been engaged in settlement discussions for over a year, the Court concludes that this case is appropriate for administrative closure. The Clerk is DIRECTED to ADMINISTRATIVELY CLOSE this case pending further order of the Court. See Mire v. Full Spectrum Lending, 389 F.3d 163, 167 (5th Cir. 2004) ("The effect of an administrative closure is no different from a simple stay, except that it affects the count of active cases pending on the court's docket; i.e., administratively closed cases are not counted as active").
