UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK JUDITH ADELA FERNANDEZ MARTINEZ, ON BEHALF OF HERSELF AND ALL OTHER PERSONS SIMILARLY SITUATED, Plaintiffs, Case No. 1:25-cv-08304 (JLR) -against- ORDER STEAMERY US INC., Defendant.

JENNIFER L. ROCHON, United States District Judge: IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that, within thirty (30) days of service of the summons and complaint, the parties must meet and confer for at least one hour in a good-faith attempt to settle this action. In their discussions, the parties should consider whether plaintiff has satisfied the threshold requirement of standing. See, e.g., Calcano v. Swarovski N. Am. Ltd.,

(2d Cir. 2022); Harty v. W. Point Realty, Inc., 28 F 4th 435, 443-44 (2d Cir. 2022). To the extent the parties are unable to settle the case themselves, they must also discuss whether further settlement discussions through the district’s court-annexed mediation program or before a magistrate judge would be productive at this time. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that within fifteen (15) additional days (i.e., within forty-five (45) days of service of the summons and complaint), the parties must submit a joint letter informing the Court whether the parties have settled. If the parties do not reach a settlement, the parties shall in the joint letter request that the Court (1) refer the case to mediation or a magistrate judge for a settlement conference (and indicate a preference between the two options), or (2) proceed with an initial status conference. Dated: October 10, 2025 SO ORDERED. New York, New York 5 hes fe L. ROCHON United States District Judge
