On February 12, 2008, the stay was lifted in Case 1 (Doc. No. 51) and the motion to consolidate was granted in part and denied in part (Doc. No. 24 in Case 2). After resolution of an appeal on the motion to consolidate in Case 2, an order staying that case and consolidating the two cases was entered by Judge Joan N. Ericksen on May 6, 2008 (Doc. No. 46). The cases have been stayed since that date.
