For those that are a little technically/legally savvy (I am not), here is some good food for thought on how to potentially 'predict' the outcome and/or progress of the upcoming mediation. Mopar is a seasoned, practicing attorney:

Mopar — Today at 11:02 AM
I hope the Mediator is successful tomorrow. I will be watching the docket filings on Thursday (24th) to see whether another continuance of the briefing/hearing date is filed or if the reply brief is simply filed along with having the hearing proceed as scheduled on Friday (25th). If another request for continuation is filed then that indicates that either an agreement has been made or they are making meaningful progress toward a settlement and need more time to reduce it to a writing and/or work out some details. If the JJ/NRXP reply brief is filed and the hearing proceed as scheduled then it indicates there is no agreement or no meaningful progress toward a settlement occurred on 2/22/22. This has been past normal experience in mediation but nothing about this litigation has been normal smile. However a settlement can occur at any point during litigation so it’s not just limited to the small window of mediation. I would love to see them use the 2/25/22 hearing date to read an agreement into the Court Record on the date. In my opinion, there hasn’t been enough Chess pieces captured to pressure the parties to settle until after discovery has been completed but anything is possible. I’m just thinking out loud. Good luck to us all!
