ORDER
______________________________________________________________________________
This matter arises on Defendant Klein’s Motion to Stay Discovery [Doc. #59, filed
01/10/2014] (the “Motion”), which is DENIED.
The defendants seek to stay discovery pending the district judge’s ruling on my
recommendation to grant in part and deny in part the defendants’ motion to dismiss. After
consideration of the analysis set forth in Federal Deposit Ins. Corp. v. Renda, 1987 WL 348635
*2 (D. Kan. Aug. 6, 1987), and String Cheese Incident, LLC v. Stylus Shows, Inc., 2006 WL
894955 *3 (D. Colo. March 30, 2006), I find that a stay is not warranted.
IT IS ORDERED that Defendant Klein’s Motion to Stay Discovery [Doc. #59] is
DENIED.

Dated January 24, 2014.
BY THE COURT:
