CIVIL ACTION NO.: 4:15-CV-33-DMB-JMV
LIFEPOINT HOSPITAL, INC., et al.
DEFENDANTS
ORDER STAYING CERTAIN PROCEEDINGS
Local Uniform Civil Rule 16(b)(3)(B) provides that “[f]iling…a jurisdiction defense
motion stays the attorney conference and disclosure requirements and all discovery not related
to the issue pending the court’s ruling on the motion, including any appeal.” L.U. CIV. R.
16(b)(3)(B) (emphasis added). Because a defendant has raised the issue of jurisdiction by
separate motion [5], staying certain proceedings is appropriate.
IT IS, THEREFORE, ORDERED that the aforementioned proceedings are hereby
STAYED pending a ruling on the motion to dismiss for lack of jurisdiction. Should the parties
desire to undertake jurisdiction related discovery, they should contact the court for scheduling of
same. Defendant shall notify the undersigned magistrate judge within seven (7) days of a
decision on the motion to dismiss and shall submit a proposed order lifting the stay.
SO ORDERED this, the 1st day of April, 2015.
/s/ Jane M. Virden
