UNITED STATES JUDICIAL PANEL

on

MULTIDISTRICT LITIGATION

IN RE: YAMAHA MOTOR CORP. RHINO ATV 

PRODUCTS LIABILITY LITIGATION MDL No. 2016

(SEE ATTACHED SCHEDULE)

CONDITIONAL TRANSFER ORDER (CTO-18)

On February 13, 2009, the Panel transferred 51 civil actions to the United States District Court for

the Western District of Kentucky for coordinated or consolidated pretrial proceedings pursuant to

28 U.S.C. § 1407. See 597 F.Supp.2d 1377 (J.P.M.L. 2009). Since that time, 177 additional actions

have been transferred to the Western District of Kentucky. With the consent of that court, all such

actions have been assigned to the Honorable Jennifer B. Coffman.

It appears that the actions on this conditional transfer order involve questions of fact that are

common to the actions previously transferred to the Western District of Kentucky and assigned to

Judge Coffman.

Pursuant to Rule 7.4 of the Rules of Procedure of the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation, 199

F.R.D. 425, 435-36 (2001), these actions are transferred under 28 U.S.C. § 1407 to the Western

District of Kentucky for the reasons stated in the order of February 13, 2009, and, with the consent

of that court, assigned to the Honorable Jennifer B. Coffman.

This order does not become effective until it is filed in the Office of the Clerk of the United States

District Court for the Western District of Kentucky. The transmittal of this order to said Clerk shall

be stayed 14 days from the entry thereof. If any party files a notice of opposition with the Clerk of

the Panel within this 14-day period, the stay will be continued until further order of the Panel.
