FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION,
Case No. 2:12–cv–536–GMN–VCF

Plaintiff,
vs.

ORDER

AMG SERVICES, INC., et al.,
Defendants.

9

Before the court are Red Cedar Services’ Motion for a Protective Order (#741) and Motion to Stay

10

(#746). On March 16, 2015, the court approved a stipulation to stay the court’s adjudication of both
11

motions. As described in the stipulation, Defendants are in the midst of a criminal investigation and
12
13
14

proceeding in this matter may infringe their ability to marshal a defense in a criminal matter.
In light of the stipulated stay, the court denies both motions without prejudice and grants Red

15

Cedar leave to refile the motions as the appropriate time. This will aid the court in controlling its docket

16

and promote the expeditious disposition of other pending motions in this matter. See Link v. Wabash R.

17

Co., 370 U.S. 626, 630–31 (1962).

18

ACCORDINGLY, and for good cause shown,

19

IT IS ORDERED that Defendants’ Motion for a Protective Order (#741) is DENIED without

20
21

prejudice.
IT IS ORDERED that Defendants’ Motion to Stay (#746) is DENIED without prejudice.

DATED this 27th day of March, 2015.
