In accordance with the Court’s scheduling order, the parties submit the following joint statement regarding the status of the case. The parties have reached an agreement in principle to settle this matter. Consistent with this tentative agreement, Defendant Williams has submitted a written offer of settlement to the Division of Enforcement, which, if accepted and approved, would resolve this proceeding. Under Commission practice, Commission counsel is not authorized to present a proposed consent judgment to the Court until the Commissioners formally approve the settlement. Given the high volume of Commission business at this time, the approval process within the Commission may take up to six weeks. The parties therefore respectfully request that all deadlines and hearings be continued for six weeks so that the Commission may consider whether to accept Williams’ settlement offer.
Respectfully submitted,
Plaintiff: /s/R.M. Harper II Richard M. Harper II (PHV #05528)
