This matter is before the Court on the parties' request to stay proceedings [Doc. No. 53] pending the Eighth Circuit's en banc rehearing of Holbein v. Baxter Chrysler Jeep, Inc., 948 F.3d 931 (8th Cir. 2020), reh'g en banc granted, opinion vacated (Mar. 19, 2020). "[T]he power to stay proceedings is incidental to the power inherent in every court to control the disposition of the causes on its docket with economy of time and effort for itself, for counsel, and for litigants." Cottrell v. Duke, 737 F.3d 1238, 1248 (8th Cir. 2013) (quoting Landis v. N. Am. Co., 299 U.S. 248, 254 (1936)). The Court finds, in the interest of judicial economy and the conservation of the parties' resources, that a stay is warranted here.
Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that these proceedings be STAYED pending the resolution of the Eighth Circuit's en banc rehearing in Holbein v. Baxter Chrysler Jeep, Inc., 948 F.3d 931 (8th Cir. 2020).
IT IS SO ORDERED.
