Filing 64

ORDER denying 45 MOTION for APPEAL OF MAGISTRATE JUDGE DECISION to District Court. Signed by Judge Ivan L.R. Lemelle on 4/13/2012. (lag, )

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
EASTERN DISTRICT OF LOUISIANA
MARYLOU DANTONIO, PH.D.

CIVIL ACTION

VERSUS

NO. 11-1477

SOUTHWESTERN EDUCATIONAL DEVELOPMENT
CORP. d/b/a SOUTHWEST EDUCATIONAL
DEVELOPMENT LABORATORY; JILL B. SLACK,
PH.D.; & LOUISIANA CHILDREN’S RESEARCH
CENTER FOR DEVELOPMENT & LEARNING, INC.

SECTION “B”(5)

ORDER
Considering the foregoing Motion to Review Magistrate Judge’s
Order (Rec. Doc. No. 45),
IT IS ORDERED that the Motion is DENIED. The Magistrate
Judge’s intervention order is neither clearly erroneous nor an
abuse of discretion. Judicial economy and parties’ interests in
avoiding potentially inconsistent rulings or duplicative work on
the underlying sued-upon claims and coverage issues are practical
considerations that promote justice, without prejudice to the
parties’ rights. Ross v. Marshall, 426 F.3d 745 (5th Cir. 2005).
To further promote the latter objective, the intervenor shall
expeditiously comply with all court ordered deadlines and shall not
seek an extension of pending or previously set discovery work
including depositions, without good cause and subject to payment
of other parties reasonable fees and costs for delays caused by
intervenor's actions.
New Orleans, Louisiana, this 13th day of April, 2012.
