DEFENDANTS

ORDER
Pending is Plaintiff’s Motion for Declaratory Judgment (Doc. No. 15). Defendants have
responded,1 and Plaintiff has replied.2 Also pending are the parties’ Requests for Oral
Arguments (Doc. Nos. 25, 28).
After reviewing the parties’ filings, I believe Plaintiff’s Motion is premature. The parties
are still in the thick of discovery, and this could reveal information relevant to determining
Plaintiff’s Motion. Accordingly, Plaintiff’s Motion (Doc. No. 15) is DENIED without prejudice.
Consequently, the parties’ Requests for Oral Arguments (Doc. Nos. 25, 28) are also DENIED
without prejudice.
IT IS SO ORDERED this 3rd day of December, 2012.
