ORDER
Joint motion, Doc. 60, granted on the alternative relief requested.
The many prior extensions have not achieved their purpose. And it is
unlikely that a further short extension will enable the parties to
overcome the virus-related challenges and finish working up this older
case for dispositive motions or trial.
For good cause, the Court
therefore suspends the Fourth Amended Final Scheduling Order, Doc.
55, and stays this case until 4 June 2021.
The case is also
administratively terminated. The parties must be prepared to sprint on
discovery, motions, and trial preparation after the stay is lifted and a
new Scheduling Order issues.
So Ordered.
