Case No. 11-11003.

ORDER GRANTING NONPARTY AETNA LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY'S MOTION TO QUASH
On September 30, 2011, nonparty Aetna Life Insurance Co. ("Aetna") filed a "Motion to Quash Plaintiffs' September 16, 2011 Subpoena." After reviewing Aetna's motion, the court ordered an expedited response from Plaintiffs. Plaintiffs filed their response on October 18, 2011, and Aetna filed a reply on October 21, 2011. The court held a hearing on October 26, 2011. For the reasons stated on the record,
IT IS ORDERED that nonparty Aetna's motion to quash [Dkt. # 37] is GRANTED.
This order does not foreclose the possibility, however unlikely, of Plaintiffs expeditiously developing a protocol to achieve the requested discovery which guards against the imposition of a burden on nonparty Aetna.
