A. In all cases in which the Respondent files an answer admitting to the paternity of the child, or signs an affidavit of paternity, or the genetic test report contains an inclusionary result, the case may be scheduled by either party for a pretrial conference conducted by the County Attorney's Child Support Division.

B. The pretrial conference is to explore the possibility of settlement, to simplify the issues and agree upon issues of fact and law to be heard by the Court, and to explore possible stipulations of fact and documents that will avoid unnecessary proof.

C. The parties may enter into an agreed judgment of paternity and order of support and file the same for approval by the Court without conducting a pretrial conference.
