UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
EASTERN DISTRICT OF LOUISIANA
LISA T. LEBLANC, ET AL.
CIVIL ACTION
VERSUS
NO. 12-2059 &
CONSOLIDATED CASES
TEXAS BRINE CO., LLC, ET AL.
SECTION A(5)
ORDER AND REASONS
[Ref: All Cases]
The following motions are before the Court: Motion to Dismiss or Stay (Rec.
Doc. 1239) filed by third-party defendant St. Paul Fire and Marine Insurance Co.;
Motion to Dismiss or Stay (Rec. Doc. 1240) filed by third-party defendants Gulf
Underwriters Insurance Co. and St. Paul Surplus Lines Insurance Co.; Motion to
Dismiss (Rec. Doc. 1274) filed by third-party defendant Chicago Insurance Co. Texas
Brine Co, LLC opposes the motions. The motions, noticed for submission on November
30, 2016, and December 11, 2016, are before the Court on the briefs without oral
argument.
As Texas Brine points out in its oppositions, the Court has previously considered
and rejected Movants’ Rule 12(b) arguments when they were raised by other similarly
situated parties. Further, the Court declines to stay the third-party demands pending in
the federal litigation absent an agreement by the involved parties to do so.
Accordingly;
12-2059, LeBlanc v. Texas Brine Co., LLC, et al., and consolidated cases
Order and Reasons (1239 1240 1274)

DENIED;
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the motions for leave to file replies (Rec. Docs.
1295 1297) are GRANTED.
