MINUTE entry before the Honorable Edmond E. Chang: Status hearing held and continued to 08/13/2018 at 9:00 a.m. Defendant McDonalds Corp is hereby dismissed as a named Defendant, without prejudice and without costs to either party, pursuant to the parties' stipulation of dismissal 36 . The Clerk's Office shall terminated McDonalds as a named Defendant. After service of discovery responses, the parties will assess whether a settlement conference would be productive. By 07/13/2018, the parties shall call the Courtroom Deputy, Sandra Brooks @ (312) 408-5121, to request a settlement conference with this Court or a settlement referral to the magistrate judge, or to report that the litigation track will continue. If the parties do request a settlement conference, then Plaintiff will need to provide more details as to her demand, explaining the detailed basis for liability, itemizing damages, and making a good-faith demand that takes into account the risks of litigation, and the time and expense of litigation. If a settlement conference is scheduled, the parties will have the time then-remaining on the discovery clock added back-on after the conference, if it is unsuccessful. If the litigation track continues, Plaintiff will likely amend the complaint so that the overtime allegations come within the disparate treatment claims rather than the hostile work environment claims.
