Case No. 14-md-02532-MMC (KAW)

ORDER REGARDING 11/13/15 LETTER

Re: Dkt. No. 130

On November 13, 2015, Plaintiffs filed a letter, seeking permission from the presiding 

judge to proceed with discovery in this multidistrict litigation. (Ltr., Dkt. No. 130.) The matter 

was referred to the undersigned on November 19, 2015. (Order, Dkt. No. 131.) 

The Court hereby orders the parties to meet and confer according to the procedures set out 

in this Court's General Standing Order, available at http://cand.uscourts.gov/kaworders. If, in the 

course of their meet and confer, the parties are able to reach a stipulation regarding the scope of 

discovery pending resolution of the motion to dismiss that is presently under submission, they may 

prepare and file a stipulation to that effect. If, however, the parties cannot devise an appropriate 

interim discovery plan, they may prepare and file a joint discovery letter brief on the issue. 1 Any 

such joint letter shall comply with the requirements set forth in this Court's General Standing 

Order.

Upon receipt of any joint letter, the Court will determine whether a hearing is necessary or

The Court notes that at the case management conference held on August 15, 2014, the presiding 

judge limited discovery and disclosures to jurisdictional issues and directed counsel to meet and 

confer regarding the scope of discovery. If the parties elect to file a joint letter brief, they shall be 

sure to address why the Court should depart from this approach.
