NOTICE OF PLAINTIFFS’ POSITION REGARDING CONSOLIDATION 

Case: 1:12-cv-03395 Document #: 66 Filed: 11/01/12 Page 2 of 7 PageID #:1212
1

Pursuant to the Court’s Order of October 25, 2012 (No. 12-cv-03395, Dkt. No. 65) (the 

“Order”), Co-Lead Plaintiffs Marvin H. Maurras Revocable Trust (“Maurras Trust”), Susan 

Chagnon (“Chagnon”) and Yongqian Zhao (“Zhao,” collectively, “Plaintiffs”) hereby file 

this Notice of Plaintiffs’ Position Concerning Consolidation of the above-captioned actions and 

state as follows: 

1. On October 2, 2012, the parties appeared before the Court for a status 

and motion hearing. During the hearing, Maurras Trust and Chagnon informed the Court of 

an intention to file a consolidated amended complaint, superseding the current operative 

complaint filed by the Maurras Trust.

2. Upon questioning from the Court, Zhao indicated a willingness to 

enter into discussions with the Maurras Trust and Chagnon over joining in a single 

consolidated amended complaint, superseding the current operative complaint filed by Zhao 

and mooting Zhao’s motion for consolidation and appointment of lead plaintiff and lead 

counsel filed on August 8, 2012.

3. Defendants expressed no objection to the proposed consolidation.

4. The Court continued the hearing until October 10, 2012, and directed 

the parties to continue discussions with the aim of agreeing to a leadership structure and a 

briefing schedule for the filing of a consolidated amended complaint. The Court indicated 

that if an agreement were to be reached, the status hearing would be removed from the 

calendar.

5. Subsequent to the hearing, and pursuant to the direction of the Court, 

Plaintiffs conferred and agreed to a leadership structure and to jointly file a consolidated 

amended complaint, superseding all previously filed complaints.

6. In light of this agreement, the Plaintiffs filed an Unopposed Motion 

for Entry of Leadership Structure Order (No. 12-cv-03395, Dkt. No. 62) on October 19, 2012. 

7. The Court issued the Order on October 25, 2012, approving Plaintiffs’ 

proposed leadership structure and requesting that the parties inform the Court in a filed pleading 

whether they would like the Court (1) to dismiss without prejudice the Zhao Action, No. 12-cv06019, or (2) to consolidate the Zhao Action with the Maurras Action, No. 12-cv-03395. 

8. The Plaintiffs hereby respectfully request that the Court order the 

consolidation of the Zhao Action with the Maurras Action. 

Dated: November 1, 2012 Respectfully submitted,
