A California Settlement Conference Statement is a document that outlines the terms of a proposed settlement in a civil lawsuit. It is typically used to facilitate a resolution of the case without a trial. The statement includes the parties’ positions on the dispute, the issues to be resolved, and the proposed settlement terms. It is presented in court during a settlement conference. There are three types of California Settlement Conference Statements: a Joint Statement, a Plaintiff’s Statement, and a Defendant’s Statement. The Joint Statement is a combined statement of both parties’ positions and proposed settlement terms. The Plaintiff’s Statement outlines the plaintiff’s position on the dispute and proposed settlement terms, while the Defendant’s Statement outlines the defendant’s position and proposed settlement terms.
