 Pursuant to Rule 54(b), the Court ordered judgment entered in favor of all Defendants against 

Martha Grigsby. In doing so, the Court expressly determined that while there are multiple plaintiffs 

remaining in this case, there is no just reason for delay of judgment against Ms. Grigsby, and that 

allowing judgment would serve the interests of justice. The interrelationship of the claims is such that 

allowing Plaintiff’s counsel to appeal the judgment, and staying the pending claims of Plaintiffs Maria 

Cozzi, Beverly Hodges, Yun Bin Hsu, Joan Monteverdi, Marybeth Pascale, Monica Patenaude and 

Margaret Turner until the appeal of Martha Grigsby is resolved, will serve the interests of all parties, 

and will conserve judicial resources. 

 The discovery cut off for fact and expert discovery has past for all parties, as well as the 

deadline for amending the pleadings for all parties. No leave to amend the pleadings will be permitted, 

nor will leave be granted to reopen discovery. Any supplemental allegations or claims of the parties 

will require a new action to be filed. 

 A case status conference is set for November 15, 2010 at 2:00 p.m. A joint case status 

statement is due by November 8, 2010. 

 

 IT IS SO ORDERED.
