ORDER LIFTING CONDITIONAL TRANSFER ORDERS
AND VACATING THE NOVEMBER 30, 2017, HEARING SESSION ORDER

Conditional transfer orders were filed in the actions on the attached schedule on August 22
and 29, 2017. Prior to expiration of that order’s 7-day stay of transmittal, plaintiffs in the actions
filed a notice of opposition to the proposed transfers. Plaintiffs later filed a motion and brief to
vacate the conditional transfer orders. The Panel has now been advised that plaintiffs have
withdrawn their opposition to transfer.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the stays of the Panel's conditional transfer orders
designated as “CTO-50 and 52” filed on August 22 and 29, 2017, are LIFTED. The actions are
transferred to the Southern District of Indiana for inclusion in the coordinated or consolidated pretrial
proceedings under 28 U.S.C. § 1407 being conducted by the Honorable Richard L. Young.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Hearing Session Order and the attached Schedule filed
on October 17, 2017, are VACATED insofar as they relate to these actions.
