Inasmuch as defendant Dowis has been served (see Docket No. 58 Affidavit/Return of Service), it is hereby ORDERED that the Order to Show Cause
(Docket No. 44) is vacated solely with respect to the lack of service on defendant
Dowis.
It is further ORDERED that the Motion to Stay Discovery filed by defendants
Falk, Hoffman, Stock, and Dowis (Docket No. 70) is GRANTED. It is thus further
ORDERED that discovery in this matter is stayed until further order of the court,
and the Scheduling Conference set on December 9, 2013, at 9:00 a.m. is VACATED
and will be reset, if necessary, following a ruling on the pending Motion to Dismiss
(Docket No. 65). It is, however, further
ORDERED that the Show Cause Hearing set for December 9, 2013, at 9:00 a.m.
remains set with respect to plaintiff’s failure to serve defendant Fortunato.
