STEVEN E BURGAUER, as Trustee of the Paul D. Burgauer Revocable Living Trust, dated May 25, 1987 and as amended, an Irrevocable Trust Plaintiff, v. PREMIER TRUST, INC., Defendant.
ORDER
PHILIP R. LAMMENS, United States Magistrate Judge
Before the Court is the defendant's motion to stay the case management and scheduling order (“CMSO”) and vacate its deadlines pending a ruling on its motion to dismiss.(Doc. 26). Here, given the general agreement of the parties and the fact that any delay in the discovery process is outweighed by the number of issues raised in the pending motion to dismiss, Defendant's motion to stay (Doc. 26) is granted. Discovery is stayed pending resolution of the defendant's motion to dismiss, and the current CMSO deadlines are vacated. If the motion to dismiss is denied, then the Court will schedule a deadline for the defendant to file its answer and for counsel to file an amended case management report under Local Rule 3.02.
The plaintiff does not object to the instant relief requested, but “does not waive anything including but not limited to objecting to Defendant attempting to add additional parties.” (Doc. 26 at 8). The most recent deadline for the parties was May 13, 2024, to add parties or amend the pleadings. (Docs. 24 & 25).
DONE and ORDERED.
