The motion did not reveal any details of what the offer entails.

Judge Christopher R. Cooper ordered Tuesday that a video hearing will be held on August 17 at 11:30 a.m.

The hearing will, “enable the parties to continue their discussions of a potential disposition of this matter short of trial,” according to Cooper’s order.
