The following minute order is made by the direction of the court, the Honorable Marsha
J. Pechman, United States District Judge:
On July 11, 2018, Defendants filed a Motion to Re-Note/Note All Pending Motions for
the Same Date and Consolidate for Oral Argument. (Dkt. No. 23.) The motion sought to stay
the ruling on the then-pending Motion for Expedited Discovery filed by Plaintiffs (Dkt. No. 15)
to coincide with the noting date for the Motion to Dismiss which had also been filed Defendants
that same day. (Dkt. No. 22.)

MINUTE ORDER - 1
1
The Court did not re-note Plaintiffs’ Motion for Expedited Discovery, but instead issued
2
a ruling which granted the motion in part and denied it in part. (Dkt. No. 32.) Although the
3
order did not state so explicitly, the implication was unmistakable that Defendants’ motion to
4
stay a ruling on the discovery request would not be granted. For purposes of clarifying the
5
record, the Court now makes that ruling explicit:
6
7
IT IS ORDERED that Defendants’ Motion to Re-Note/Note All Pending Motions for the
Same Date and Consolidate for Oral Argument is DENIED.
8
The clerk is ordered to provide copies of this order to all counsel.
