United States District Court

For the Northern District of California

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

MARCELLA L. LOWRY,

Plaintiff,

 v.

ELI LILLY AND COMPANY,

Defendant

 /

No. C-06-1702 MMC

ORDER VACATING CASE

MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE

Before the Court is plaintiff’s Case Management Conference Statement, filed June 2,

2006, by which plaintiff seeks to continue the June 9, 2006 case management conference

in the instant action by approximately 120 days. Plaintiff states a continuance is necessary

because she anticipates the instant action will be transferred for inclusion in MDL No. 1596,

In re Zyprexa Products Liability Litigation, and because she has not served defendant. 

Because the instant action was filed March 6, 2006, the 120-day deadline for plaintiff to

serve defendant, pursuant to Rule 4(m) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, has not yet

elapsed.

Additionally, the Court has been notified by the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict

Litigation (“JPML”), by letter dated May 17, 2006, that the JPML has directed the Clerk of

Eastern District of New York to file an order transferring the above-titled action to said

Case 3:06-cv-01702-MMC Document 5 Filed 06/05/06 Page 1 of 2
