    ORDER OF THE BOARD
    (by C.A. Manning):
    This matter
    comes before the Board
    on Berkshire Furniture
    Company,
    Inc. and the People of the State of Illinois’ Joint Status
    Report
    filed
    on October
    15,
    1993.
    The status
    report was filed
    pursuant to
    a Board order of July
    14,
    1993 granting a motion to
    continue hearing until October 15,
    1993 and directing the parties
    to file a status report on or before October 15, 1993 in the event
    this case has not yet been closed.
    The status report indicates that the parties have engaged in
    substantial settlement discussions relating to the resolution of
    the issues raised by the People’s complaint.
    The report further
    states
    that
    the
    parties
    have
    discussed
    the
    latest
    written
    settlement proposal and they have come to an agreement with respect
    to the specific language of all but one paragraph of the proposed
    settlement agreement.
    The status report specifically provides the following:
    “4.
    It is the sense of the attorneys subscribing to this
    status report that
    a final,
    fully executed settlement
    agreement will be ready to file with the Board within two
    weeks from the date of entry of this status report.”
    Based on this representation,
    the Board will not order a further
    status report in this matter.
    However, the Board will, on its own
    motion,
    extend the continuance with regard to the hearing date for
    an additional two weeks from today’s order,
    or until November
    4,
    1993.
    If the parties have not filed
    a
    settlement agreement by
    November 2,
    1993 by 4:30
    (~
    35 Ill.
    Adm. Code Section 101.181),
    the Board will,
    at
    its November
    4,
    1993 Board Meeting,
    issue an
    order setting this case for hearing.
    IT IS SO ORDERED.
