STAYING CASE NO. C06-7135

BRADLEY ARNOLD, et al.,

Plaintiffs,

v.

ELI LILLY AND COMPANY and

MCKESSON CORPORATION,

Defendants.

NO. C06-7135 SI

This matter comes before the Court on Defendant Eli Lilly and Company’s motion to

relate Arnold, et al. v. Eli Lilly and Company, et al., Case No. 06-7135 SI, to this case. 

Neither set of plaintiffs objected to Eli Lilly’s motion, and the time for filing a response to

the motion under Civil Local Rule 3-12 has now expired.

Having reviewed Eli Lilly’s papers, the Court finds that the two cases meet the

requirements for relation under Civil Local Rule 3-12, and Eli Lilly’s motion to relate cases

is therefore GRANTED. Pursuant to Civil Local Rule 3-12(f)(3), the Clerk shall reassign

Arnold to the undersigned judge. Counsel are instructed that all future filings shall bear the

initials “TEH” immediately after the case number.
