Plaintiffs, by the undersigned attorney, set forth the following as and for their Notice of
Related Case pursuant to S.D.N.Y. LCivR 1.6(a):
To the best of Plaintiffs’ knowledge, information and belief, this action arises from a
common nucleus of operative fact with MDL Case No. 4:20-md-2949-KGB In Re: Profemur Hip
Implant Products Liability, United States District Court, Eastern District of Arkansas, and actions
brought under or removed to such MDL.
On January 21, 2021 Conditional Transfer Order [CTO-13] was entered by the Judicial
Panel of Multidistrict Litigation, transferring this case to the above referenced MDL, if no
opposition is filed by January 28, 2021. On January 21, 2021 that Conditional Transfer Order
[CTO-13] was entered in the E.D. of Arkansas, In Re: Profemur Hip Implant Products Liability,
4:20-md-2949, Doc. No. 198, attached hereto as Exhibit 1. Barring an objection to this transfer,
which is not expected, this matter will shortly be ordered to be transferred MDL 2949 for further
proceedings in that court,
Respectfully submitted this 22nd day of January 2021.
