Filing 22

ORDER denying 21 Motion to Redesignate Case as Track One. Signed by Judge Roy B. Dalton, Jr. on 3/23/2017. (VMF)

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
MIDDLE DISTRICT OF FLORIDA
ORLANDO DIVISION
TRANSPORT WORKERS UNION OF
AMERICA, AFL/CIO LOCAL 525,
Plaintiff,
v.

Case No. 6:17-cv-105-Orl37TBS

CENTERRA GROUP LLC,
Defendant.
_____________________________________
ORDER
In the instant action, the parties move for the redesignation of this case as a Track
One case. (Doc. 21.) For the reasons set forth below, the motion is due to be denied.
Plaintiff initiated this action to compel arbitration of a dispute concerning a work
schedule provision in a collective bargaining agreement. (See Doc. 1.) As is standard
practice, the Clerk issued a Related Case Order and designated the instant action as a
Track Two case under Local Rule 3.05(b)(2). (See Doc. 4.)
The parties now move to redesignate this matter as a Track One case. (Doc. 21
(“Motion”).) In support, the parties represent that: (1) they agree on all material facts;
(2) this case would best be resolved through cross motions for summary judgment based
on a stipulated record; and (3) discovery is unnecessary. (See id. at 1–2.) Anticipating
redesignation, the parties agreed to the following case management schedule: (1) a
deadline of May 11, 2017 for submitting a stipulated record; and (2) a dispositive motions
-1-

deadline of June 1, 2017, with responses due on or before June 22, 2017. (See Doc. 21-1.)
In the interest of securing the just, speedy, and inexpensive administration of
justice, the Court will enter a Case Management and Scheduling Order consistent with
the parties’ requests. Hence the Court finds that redesignation is unnecessary and the
Motion is due to be denied. The parties are advised that no discovery will be conducted
absent leave of the Court. If the Court determines that a hearing is necessary, it will enter
the appropriate notice.
Accordingly, it is ORDERED AND ADJUDGED as follows:
1.

The parties’ Case Management Report and Joint Motion to Redesignate
Case as Track One (Doc. 21) is DENIED.

2.

The Court will enter a Case Management and Scheduling Order consistent
with this Order.

DONE AND ORDERED in Chambers in Orlando, Florida, on March 23, 2017.
