C.A. No. 09-564-S

STAY ORDER
These matters came before the Court for a chambers conference on February 22, 2012,
for consideration of several pending motions, including the Emergency Renewed Motion for
Partial Stay of Defendants Joseph Caramadre, Raymour Radhakrishnan, Estella Rodrigues and
ADM Associates, LLC (ECF No. 125 in Case No. 09-470-S-DLM) and other related motions
docketed in each of the cases. After that conference, it is hereby
ORDERED, ADJUDGED AND DECREED:
1.

With the exceptions noted in this Order, these cases (C.A. Nos. 09-470, 09-471,

09-472, 09-473, 09-502, 09-549 and 09-564) are stayed pending the resolution of the criminal
matter, United States v. Caramadre, et al., Cr. No. 11-186;
2.

Plaintiffs may continue to pursue document discovery in accordance with

paragraph 4 of the Initial Case Management Order (ECF No. 58 in Case No. 09-470-S-DLM),
which paragraph remains in full force and effect until further order of the Court; all other terms
and obligations of the Initial Case Management Order are hereby stayed pursuant to this order;

3

3.

The Court will consider motions for entry of final judgment pursuant to Rule

54(b) from any defendant against whom there are no longer any pending claims as a result of this
Court’s Opinion and Order of February 7, 2012 on the motions to dismiss (ECF No. 132 in Case
No. 09-470-S-DLM);
4.

Plaintiffs may appeal the entry of any final judgment entered as a result of any

motion filed pursuant to paragraph 3; and
5.

Estate Planning Resources, Inc’s (“EPR”) obligation to respond to the

interrogatories propounded by the Plaintiffs pursuant to the Order Granting in Part Plaintiffs’
Motion to Compel Defendant Estate Planning Resources to Respond to Interrogatories (ECF No.
122 in Case No. 09-470) is stayed pending the resolution of a forthcoming motion for
reconsideration of that order that EPR will file.
6.

No other discovery, other than that set forth in this Order, is permitted without

leave of the Court. To the extent Plaintiffs attempt to engage in any other litigation activity that
Defendants believe is inconsistent with this Order, Defendants may move to stay that activity.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
