Counsel for Plaintiff.

________________________________________________________________
This matter is before the Court on Defendants’ motion for summary
judgment.
The Court has thoroughly reviewed the parties’ submissions, and finds
that summary judgment is clearly not warranted in this case in light of the many
genuine issues of material fact contained in the record.  Accordingly,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED:
1.

Defendants’ Motion for Summary Judgment [Doc. No. 116] is
DENIED.

2.

The hearing set for oral argument on Defendants’ motion is
cancelled.
