MEMORANDUM OPINION

PER CURIAM On November 20, 2020, we abated this appeal after granting Appellants’ unopposed motion for a 30-day abatement. We instructed the parties to file either a status report or motion to dismiss by the end of the abatement period.

The parties have filed their Joint Status Report and Request for Extension of Abatement. In it, they seek an extension of the abatement to January 4, 2021, explaining that they are continuing “working . . . to determine whether the underlying case can be dismissed by agreement.”

The Court grants the parties’ request for an abatement extension and extends the abatement until January 4, 2021. The parties are ordered to file another status report, or a motion to dismiss, by that date.
