Civil Action No. 11-0110-CG-M

ORDER
This matter is before the court on the consent motion to stay filed by
defendant Katina Quaites (Doc. 27), in which the defendant moves for a stay of this
action because she has been charged with a felony offense of assault in the 2nd
degree in the Circuit Court of Baldwin County, and because her Fifth Amendment
right against self incrimination in the criminal case is threatened by “the real and
apparent threat” of this civil action.

Upon due consideration, and as the defendant represents that all parties
consent to the motion, the motion to stay is GRANTED. Therefore, this matter is
hereby STAYED pending resolution of the felony indictment pending against
Katina Quaites. It is further ORDERED that this action be placed on the court’s
administrative docket
Upon receipt of a written notification from the parties that the Baldwin
County Circuit Court case against Ms. Quaites has been resolved, this action will be
placed on the court’s active docket, the stay will be lifted, and the case will be
referred to the magistrate judge for entry of an amended scheduling order.
DONE and ORDERED this 29th day of September, 2011.
/s/ Callie V. S. Granade
UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
