Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Document 387 Entered on FLSD Docket 04/22/2016 Page 1 of 3 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF FLORIDA Case No. 9:08.80736-Civ-Marra/Johnson JANE DOE #1 and JANE DOE #2 I UNITED STATES JANE DOE NO. 2'S UNOPPOSED MOTION TO BE EXCUSED FROM UPCOMING MEDIATION SESSION COMES NOW Jane Doe No. 2, by and through undersigned counsel, to request that she be excused from the upcoming court-ordered mediation session in this case. Jane Doe 2 is aware that, ordinarily, the personal attendance of all parties to a case is required. The obvious purpose of that requirement is to insure that, if possible, the mediation is successful. In this case, Jane Doe 2 has agreed that, if a mediated resolution is reached with Jane Doe 1, that resolution will be acceptable to her as well. She will also be available by telephone should any unanticipated need arise. Accordingly, her personal attendance at the mediation will not be required to produce a successful mediation and she should not be required to personally attend. The Government does not oppose the motion provided that Doe 2 has authorized Jane Doe 1 to act on her behalf and had agreed to abide by the decisions made by Jane Doe 1 at the mediation and has signed something to that effect. Counsel anticipate being able to secure such a written statement and will advise the Court and Government counsel if for any reason that does not occur. WHEREFORE, Jane Doe 2 asks to be excused from personal attendance requirement of the pending mediation. 1 EFTA00211530 Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Document 387 Entered on FLSD Docket 04/22/2016 Page 2 of 3 DATED: April 22, 2016 Respectfully Submitted, /s/ Bradley J.
