Order Granting Motions to Quash

08cv598 [Doc. Nos. 1 and 2]

08cv638 [Doc. No. 1]

The Defendant, Synthes, and third parties Raymond J. Linovitz, M.D., F.A.C.S. and Timothy A.

Peppers, M.D., filed motions to quash Plaintiffs’ third party subpoenas issued to Dr. Linovitz and Dr.

Peppers. Plaintiffs’ filed a notice of non-opposition and requested that the Court allow Plaintiffs’ to

reissue these subpoenas at a later date without prejudice. Upon review of the moving papers and

subpoenas at issue, the Court finds that the issuance of these subpoenas was premature and therefore

GRANTS the motions to quash without prejudice to Plaintiff’s reissuing the subpoenas after other

preliminary discovery matters have been addressed.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

DATED: May 1, 2008
