CONDITIONAL TRANSFER ORDER (CTO-9) 

On October 1,2009, the Panel transferred 34 civil actions to the United States District Court for the 

Northern District of Alabama for coordinated or consolidated pretrial proceedings pursuant to 28 

U.S.C. § 1407. See 655 F.Supp.2d 1346 (J.P.M.L. 2009). Since that time, 53 additional actions 

have been transferred to the Northern District ofAlabama. With the consent ofthat court, all such 

actions have been assigned to the Honorable Inge P. Johnson. 

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

common to the actions previously transferred to the Northern District of Alabama and assigned to 

Judge Johnson. 

Pursuant to Rule 7.4 ofthe Rules ofProcedure ofthe 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 Northern 

District of Alabama for the reasons stated in the order ofOctober 1, 2009, and, with the consent of 

that court, assigned to the Honorable Inge P. Johnson. 

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

District Court for the Northern District ofAlabama. The transmittal ofthis order to said Clerk shall 

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

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

Inasmuch as no objection is 

pending at this time, the FOR THE PANEL: 

stay is lifted.
