ORDER

Pending before the Court is the Motion to Stay [# 149]. While labeled a
“Consent Motion to Stay Proceedings,” Plaintiffs’ counsel has not shown that
consultation with defendants has occurred. See LCvR 7.1(b). Further, Plaintiffs’
counsel has not filed a brief as required by LCvR 7.1(c).
Therefore, the Court DISMISSES the motion without prejudice [# 149].
Plaintiffs’ counsel is DIRECTED to refile the motion—stating if the parties have
conferred and stating opposing counsel’s position(s).

Contemporaneously and

separately from the motion, Plaintiffs’ counsel must file a brief.
