The tentative is as follows:

The Motion for Preliminary Approval set for hearing on August 27, 2024, must be continued for counsel to provide a settlement agreement which is properly formatted and filed. The Stipulation of Settlement filed with the Court on April 29, 2024 has a file formatting error such that any copying of the document via "copy-paste" function results in illegible material. In addition, the text is not searchable. All documents electronically filed must comply with the Rules of Court, including 2.256(b)(3) which specifies: "The document must be text searchable when technologically feasible without impairment of the document's image." The same search functionality is required by this Court's First Amended General Order re electronic filing, filed May 3, 2019. Counsel is to provide a properly formatted, fully text searchable settlement agreement before the Court can proceed with preliminary approval. The continued hearing date is ________ at ____ a.m. with updated/corrected papers filed no later than ______.
