STIPULATION
1.
Pursuant to this Court’s Minute Order dated November 24, 2020 (the “Scheduling
Order”), the seven sets of Insurer-Family Defendants in the above-captioned actions each
11
12
13
14
responded to Plaintiffs’ complaints by filing a motion to dismiss under Fed. R. Civ. P. 12 (the
“Rule 12 Motions”) on January 15, 2021.
2.
The Scheduling Order applied LCR 7(e)(3), limiting each Defendant’s motion to
15
24 pages. Collectively, Defendants’ Rule 12 Motions used 147 pages, which was 21 fewer pages
16
than the 168 pages they were allotted by the Scheduling Order.
17
18
19
20
21
3.
Plaintiffs’ oppositions to the Rule 12 Motions are due on February 12, 2021.
4.
The Scheduling Order similarly provides Plaintiffs with 24 pages for each of their
oppositions to the Rule 12 motions, for a total of up to 168 pages.
5.
Having reviewed Defendants’ Rule 12 Motions, Plaintiffs believe that it will be
22
most efficient for the parties and the Court if they respond to the Rule 12 Motions by filing a
23
single omnibus opposition brief in response. Plaintiffs will limit their omnibus opposition brief
24
to 95 pages, clearly noting which portions of the briefs they are responding to.
