Settlement judge proceeding are based on the voluntary participation of the parties. If at any time a party no longer wishes to pursue the settlement judge process, the matter is referred back to the administrative law judge assigned to preside over the formal hearing.
The duration of the settlement judge's appointment is limited in order to prevent the settlement judge procedure from contributing to administrative delay, and to ensure that a formal proceeding will follow forthwith if a settlement is not reached. If the parties and the settlement judge agree that additional fruitful negotiations are possible, however, the settlement judge's appointment may be extended.
So, the way I read that is, since George has his mind made up about NOT settling then it gets a hearing.
Oh, if the above is incorrect (concerning THIS case), please post more than just an opinion. Like a link to something legal.
TIA
P.S. I sometimes don't mind being wrong. It's part of the learning process.
