The Motion (ROA # 334) of Defendants SS PURCHCO, LLC, ACCELERATED ASSETS, LLC, and PAHRUMP VALLEY REAL ESTATE CO., LLC ("Defendants" or "Companies") to order Expedited Alternative Dispute Resolution ("ADR") among the Companies and Plaintiff PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA, by and through the COMMISSIONER OF BUSINESS OVERSIGHT ("Plaintiff") (together, the "Parties"), is DENIED WITHOUT PREJUDICE.

The Court is not adverse to any effort the parties invest in to resolve this lawsuit; however, the question is whether the Court, in the absence of a consensus among the parties to participate in ADR, should order the parties to participate in ADR. Plaintiff objects and indicates that "the People believe that an expedited ADR at this time is premature and will not serve the interests of the court or the parties."
