2016-04-1421ENDORSED ORDER: The Court has received the case management report and appreciates the parties working together. The Court has a question about the choice of mediator. The plaintiff in this case has been granted ifp status--which means he does not have to bear certain expenses that other parties do. Normally, the Court will ask a magistrate judge to preside at mediation over those cases where the plaintiff is ifp because there is no cost to participate in mediation in front of the magistrate judge. However, mediators do charge for their services and the Court can not require an ifp plaintiff to pay. Before appointing a mediator, the parties are directed to provide this information to the Court by April 19, 2016. Signed by Judge Virginia M. Hernandez Covington on 4/14/2016.
