Re: Mitchell v. Wachovia, et al.
D.Del., C.A. No. 06-725 (GMS)
Dear Judge Sleet:
p I am writing to advise the Court that the parties engaged in mediation with Judge (ret.)
Vincent A. Bifferato, Sr. yesterday. The parties were not able to resolve the case, and it appears that
l settlement is not likely.
T Following the mediation conference yesterday, I was advised by defense counsel that a key
trial witness who had been listed by both sides, Ladan Amini, was leaving the country and would not
be available for trial. This morning, plaintiff filed a motion for a continuance based on this
development.
Lastly, we are in receipt of the Court’s order of this morning canceling the pretrial
conference that had been scheduled for tomorrow. We stand ready to address pretrial matters with
l the Court at its convenience. -
S We thank the Court for its consideration of this matter.
Respectfully submitted,
. Steven E. Mones
