ORDER GRANTING MOTION TO DISMISS WITH PREJUDICE
HERNDON, District Judge:
On November 14, 2014, Bayer filed a motion to dismiss with prejudice,
pursuant to Case Management Order 60 (“CMO 60”), the above captioned
plaintiffs’ claims for failure to submit complete Claim Package Materials.2
Pursuant to the Court’s local rules, the plaintiffs had 30 days to file a
responsive pleading. None of the above captioned plaintiffs filed a responsive
pleading. At the expiration of the responsive pleading deadline, as is required
2
Pursuant to the “Settlement Agreement,” Exhibit A to CMO 60, plaintiffs enrolled in the Gallbladder Resolution
Program are required to submit to the Claims Administrator all the Claim Package Materials identified in Section
3.03(a) of the Settlement Agreement. Section 3.01 of the Settlement Agreement fixed November 18, 2013 as the
deadline for submission of a complete Claims Package. The subject motion asserts that the plaintiffs have failed to
comply with this requirement.
2
under CMO 60, the motion was considered by Special Master Stephen Saltzburg.3
On December 22, 2014, Special Master’s Saltzburg’s report and recommendation
relating to the above captioned cases was docketed. In each case, Special Master
Saltzburg found that the subject plaintiffs failed to comply with the requirements
of CMO 60 and recommended that the subject plaintiffs’ claims be dismissed with
prejudice in accord with the requirements of CMO 60.
The parties were given 14 days to respond or object to Special Master
Saltzburg’s report and recommendation. The deadline for responding or objecting
to the Special Master’s report has expired. None of the above captioned plaintiffs
have responded or objected.
Upon consideration of Bayer’s motion to dismiss, the Special Master’s
report, and the requirements of CMO 60, the Court finds that the above captioned
3
Section VIII of CMO 60 “appoints Professor Stephen Saltzburg as Special Master to hear motions to dismiss
claims that fail to comply with the terms of the Agreement, and to recommend to this Court rulings on such motions,
as specified in the Agreement” (Doc. 2739 p. 8).
3
plaintiffs have failed to comply with CMO 60.
Accordingly, the claims of the above captioned plaintiffs are DISMISSED
WITH PREJUDICE.
FURTHER, the Court directs the Clerk of the Court to enter judgment
reflecting the same.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
Signed this 8th day of January, 2015.
