ORDER

THIS MATTER is before the Court on defendant’s Motion for Summary Judgment.
Having considered defendant’s motion and reviewed the pleadings, including plaintiff’s Response
and defendant’s Reply, the Court finds that genuine issues of material fact remain for trial. See
Carroll v. Litton Systems, Inc., 47 F.3d 1164 (4th Cir. 1995). In particular, the Court finds that
plaintiff has presented sufficient evidence on causation to warrant resolution of his claims by a
jury. Charleston Area Medical Ctr. V. Blue Cross, 6 F.3d 243, 245 (4th Cir. 1993).

IT IS, THEREFORE, ORDERED that defendant’s Motion for Summary Judgment (#45)
is DENIED. In accordance with the Pretrial Order, the Ready Date for trial is October 2, 2017,
and this matter will be tried on the first available trial term on or after that date unless the parties
agree and jointly request a different trial date.
