ORDER

Pending before the Court is Defendants’ Motion to Stay Pending Deadlines
[# 37]. Defendants in this case have both filed Motions for Summary Judgment.
Defendants contend that because Plaintiff failed to designate any experts to testify that
the medical product at issue was defective and caused Plaintiff’s injury, that summary
judgment is proper for Defendants.

Accordingly, Defendants move to stay all

deadlines, including their deadline for disclosing experts, in the case pending a ruling
from the District Court on the Motions for Summary Judgment. For good cause
shown, the Court GRANTS Defendants’ Motion [ # 37]. The Court stays the
remaining deadlines in the Pretrial Order and Case Management Plan pending a ruling
on the Motions for Summary Judgment.
