ORDER LIFTING STAY. Signed by Magistrate Judge Jane M. Virden on 3/13/19. (bfg)
ORDER LIFTING STAY
This matter is before the court consistent with the court’s Order [33] staying this case
pending a ruling on the [31] motion to dismiss. On August 31, 2018, plaintiffs filed a motion for
discovery on jurisdiction-related issues, and such relief was granted. Doc. #40. On October 19,
2018 the District Judge denied the [31] motion to dismiss without prejudice, to be re-urged twentyone days after the close of jurisdictional discovery. However, the court did not lift the stay at that
time but left the stay in place until the close of jurisdictional discovery. As the close of the
discovery period approached, plaintiffs filed a motion to compel jurisdiction-related discovery.
The parties ultimately resolved the discovery dispute, and on March 11, 2019, the court entered an
order denying as moot the motion to compel jurisdictional discovery, officially closing the period
for jurisdictional discovery. Therefore, the stay of this case should be lifted.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the stay on the above-styled matter is hereby
LIFTED and a case management conference will be set by further notice of the court.
SO ORDERED, this March 13, 2019.
/s/ Jane M. Virden
