Defendant's motion to dismiss, until after the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation issues a 

decision on the pending motion to transfer and consolidate this Action with the numerous other 

related actions that are the subject of the MDL Motion;

resources of the Court and the parties, if the Court stays all proceedings in this case until after 

the MDL Panel issues a decision on the pending MDL motions for transfer and consolidation 

concerning this action; 

IT IS ORDERED that all proceedings in this case are stayed, pending the decision of the 

MDL Panel concerning the MDL Motion, or until July 2, 2010 if the MDL Panel does not rule 

on the MDL Motion. The Scheduling Conference is continued to July 26, 2010 at 2:00 p.m.

Defendant’s motion to dismiss, set for hearing on April 26, 2010 is hereby DENIED WITHOUT 

PREJUDICE to its being renewed after the MDL Panel makes a determination whether to 

transfer and consolidate this action.
