WESTERN DIVISION
MARIAN J. MENSIE, on behalf of
herself and on behalf of all others
similarly situated

v.

PLAINTIFF

No. 4:17-cv-85-DPM

TOYOTA MOTOR CREDIT
CORPORATION

DEFENDANT

ORDER
I drive a 2011 Toyota RAV4. I bought it new from Central Toyota in
Jonesboro, financed it through TMCC, and paid it off.

My paperwork

indicates that I declined gap coverage and a vehicle service contract. I don't
have any firm memory of that part of the transaction. Because I didn't buy
the gap coverage, I would not be a member of the proposed nationwide class
or the proposed Arkansas subclass. I don't believe these circumstances
require or support recusal. 28 U.S.C. § 455. But I wanted the parties to know
about them and to know that I will gladly reconsider on request whether I
should keep this case. Please file any such request by 31March2017.
