UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

DENISE BEYARD, et al.,

Plaintiffs,

vs.

PENTAGON FEDERAL CREDIT UNION,

Defendant.

Case No. 1:21-cv-01063-JLT-SAB

ORDER VACATING DECEMBER 4, 2024 

HEARING; HOLDING DEFENDANT’S 

MOTION TO EXCLUDE PLAINTIFFS FROM 

USING EXPERT TESTIMONY IN 

ABEYANCE

(ECF No. 77)

On October 30, 2024, Defendant filed a motion to exclude plaintiffs from using expert 

testimony. (ECF No. 77.) The hearing is currently set for December 4, 2024. (ECF No. 78.)

Prior to filing the discovery motion, Defendants filed a motion for reconsideration of this 

Court’s order granting Plaintiff’s motion to substitute class representatives (ECF No. 71) and a 

motion to dismiss for lack of jurisdiction and improper venue (ECF No. 72). Both motions are 

currently pending before the district judge. The hearing before the district judge for both 

motions is set for December 11, 2024. (ECF No. 82.)

Due to the potentially dispositive nature of Defendant’s pending motions before the 

district judge, the Court shall, in the interest of judicial economy, vacate the December 4, 2024 

hearing and hold Defendant’s discovery motion in abeyance until the pending merits-based 

motions are adjudicated.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that: 

1. The hearing set for December 4, 2024 is VACATED; 

2. Defendant’s motion to exclude plaintiffs from using expert testimony (ECF No. 

77) is HELD IN ABEYANCE pending the adjudication of Defendant’s other 

potentially dispositive motions (ECF Nos. 71, 72). If necessary, the Court will 

either reset the hearing or take the discovery motion under submission after the 

motions before the District Judge are decided; and

3. All dates and aspects of the scheduling order remain in effect.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: November 26, 2024
