Plaintiffs have filed a motion to stay all further proceedings in this case until the parties have
engaged in mediation (doc. 14). Defendants do not oppose the entry of a stay. Upon reviewing the

before whom three dispositive motions are pending, the undersigned U.S. magistrate judge concurs
with the parties that a stay of all pretrial proceedings—including the planning meeting conference,
initial disclosures, and briefing on the dispositive motions—is warranted.
In consideration of the foregoing, and upon good cause shown,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED:
1.
Plaintiffs’ motion to stay (doc. 14) is granted.
2.
All pretrial proceedings in this case, including discovery, initial disclosures, and
motion briefing, are stayed until further order of the court.
