ORDER

Previously, the Court granted in part and reserved ruling in part the Motion

purposes of discovery and reserved ruling on the issue of whether the Court should
consolidate these cases for purposes of trial for the District Court after the
completion of discovery. (Order, Apr. 23, 2013.) Consistent with its prior Order,
the Court now GRANTS in part and DENIES without prejudice the motion
[# 7]. Either party may file a renewed motion to consolidate this case for trial
within twenty (20) days of the close of discovery. At that time, the District Court
can determine whether or not to consolidate the case for trial.
