WYETH, INC., et al., Defendants. ________________________________/ ORDER This matter comes before the Court pursuant to Wyeth's Unopposed Motion for Stay of Proceedings (Doc. # 11), filed on December 10, 2008. The parties seek an order staying this
case until such time as the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation has dispositively ruled as to whether this case will be transferred to the consolidated multidistrict
litigation in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas. This Court agrees with the relief sought by the parties, and in the interest of judicial economy, this Court stays this matter until such time as the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation has dispositively ruled as to whether this case will be transferred to the consolidated multidistrict
litigation in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas. In so staying this case, this Court is mindful of its
broad discretion over the manner in which it manages the cases before it, Chrysler Int'l Corp. v. Chemaly, 280 F.3d 1358, 1360 (11th Cir. 2002), and finds that the requested stay is reasonable. Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED, ADJUDGED, and DECREED: 1. Wyeth's Unopposed Motion for Stay of Proceedings [11] is GRANTED and the Clerk is directed to STAY AND
ADMINISTRATIVELY CLOSE this case until such time as the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation has
dispositively ruled as to whether this case will be transferred to the consolidated multidistrict litigation in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas. 2. The parties shall immediately inform the court when the Panel has made its final ruling. DONE and ORDERED in Chambers in Tampa, Florida, this 11th day of December, 2008.
