Counsel shall have parties present who shall have full authority to negotiate all terms and demands presented by the case, and full authority to enter into a settlement agreement, including an adjustor if an insurance company is involved. “Full authority”means that the person who attends the settlement conference has the complete and unfettered capacity and authority to meet or pay all terms or amounts which are demanded or sought by the other side of the case without consulting with some other person, committee or agency. If any person has limits upon the extent or amount within which he or she is authorized to settle on behalf of a party, that person does not have “full authority.” No person is ever required to settle a case on any particular terms or amounts. However, if any person attends the settlement conference without full authority, and the case fails to settle, that party may be ordered to pay the attorney’s fees and costs for the other side. In order that productive settlement discussions can be held, counsel shall prepare and submit two settlement documents: one to be submitted to the other party or parties, and the other to be submitted by e:mail only to the Magistrate Judge. The documents which are presented to opposing counsel shall contain an overview of the case from the presenter’s point of view, shall summarize the evidence which support that side’s claims and shall present a demand or offer. These documents should be intended to persuade the clients and counsel on the other side.
The document to be e:mailed to the Magistrate Judge (not submitted for filing to the court) at Hegarty_Chambers@cod.uscourts.gov, in accordance with the electronic filing procedures of this court, shall contain copies of the above materials, but additionally shall contain any confidential comments which counsel wishes to make, any comments with regard to perceived weaknesses in the
