MDL No. 2587

(SEE ATTACHED SCHEDULE)

CONDITIONAL TRANSFER ORDER (CTO −1)

On December 16, 2014, the Panel transferred 26 civil action(s) to the United States District Court
for the Northern District of Texas for coordinated or consolidated pretrial proceedings pursuant to
28 U.S.C. § 1407. See __F.Supp.2d__ (J.P.M.L. 2014). Since that time, no additional action(s) have
been transferred to the Northern District of Texas. With the consent of that court, all such actions
have been assigned to the Honorable Sidney A Fitzwater.
It appears that the action(s) on this conditional transfer order involve questions of fact that are
common to the actions previously transferred to the Northern District of Texas and assigned to
Judge Fitzwater.
Pursuant to Rule 7.1 of the Rules of Procedure of the United States Judicial Panel on Multidistrict
Litigation, the action(s) on the attached schedule are transferred under 28 U.S.C. § 1407 to the
Northern District of Texas for the reasons stated in the order of December 16, 2014, and, with the
consent of that court, assigned to the Honorable Sidney A Fitzwater.
This order does not become effective until it is filed in the Office of the Clerk of the United States
District Court for the Northern District of Texas. The transmittal of this order to said Clerk shall be
stayed 7 days from the entry thereof. If any party files a notice of opposition with the Clerk of the
Panel within this 7−day period, the stay will be continued until further order of the Panel.
