On August 29, 2011, the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation (“MDL Panel”) issued a

fact that are common to those raised in this MDL action, MDL No. 2250. See August 29, 2011
19
Conditional Transfer Order (CTO-1), MDL No. 2250, Dkt. #115. On September 7, 2011, the MDL
20
Panel issued a finalized CTO-1, transferring all but two tag-along actions to the undersigned. See
21
September 7, 2011 CTO-1, MDL No. 2250, Dkt. #120. The two tag-along actions that have not
22
been transferred because oppositions were filed are: Snyder et al v. Apple Inc., Case No. 11-00784
23
in the Eastern District of Missouri and O’Flaherty v. Apple Inc., Case No. 11-00359 in the
24
Southern District of Illinois. An omnibus case management conference is scheduled for these
25
MDL proceedings, excluding the Snyder and O’Flaherty actions, before the undersigned on
26
Wednesday, October 5, 2011 at 2:00 p.m. A Joint Case Management Statement is due by
27
Wednesday, September 28, 2011.
