This matter is before the magistrate judge pursuant to the Order of Reference in Case No. 04-40243, dated September 24, 2007, wherein the following Motions were referred for hearing and determination: a) Motion to Reopen Case filed on April 16, 2007 (DE #138); b) Amended Motion to Reinstate Case, Grant Intervenor Status filed on April 20, 2007 (DE #141); c) Motion to Reinstate Case, Grant Intervenor Status to Applicants Young, Chakur and Weglarz filed on April 20, 2007 (DE #145); d) Motion Seeking Intervention filed on April 20, 2007 (DE #146); e) Motion for Pre-Hearing Conference filed on May 15, 2007 (DE #153); f) Motion to Strike filed on May 22, 2007 (DE #156); and g) Motion for Turnover of Mailing List filed on June 5, 2007 (DE #159). A notice was issued to all parties that the Motions would be heard on November 19, 2007, at 2:00 p.m.
In lieu of a hearing on the Motions, the magistrate judge convened a status conference with counsel for all interested parties. Discussions revealed that the Motion to Reopen Case filed on April 16, 2007 (DE #138), the Amended Motion to Reinstate Case, Grant Intervenor Status filed on April 20, 2007 (DE #141) and the Motion to Reinstate Case, Grant Intervenor Status to Applicants Young, Chakur and Weglarz filed on April 20, 2007 (DE #145) raise the same issues. Accordingly, the Motion to Reopen Case filed on April 16, 2007 (DE #138) and the Amended Motion to Reinstate Case, Grant Intervenor Status filed on April 20, 2007 (DE #141) are deemed withdrawn. The Motion to Reinstate Case, Grant Intervenor Status to Applicants Young, Chakur and Weglarz filed on April 20, 2007 (DE #145) and the Motion Seeking Intervention filed on April 20, 2007 (DE #146) will be heard on December 10, 2007 at 2:00 p.m. The magistrate judge having convened a status conference, the Motion for Pre-Hearing Conference filed on May 15, 2007 (DE #153) and the Motion to Strike filed on May 22, 2007 (DE #156) are denied as moot.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Motion for Turnover of Mailing List filed on June 15, 2007 (DE #159) will be held in abeyance pending the disposition of the Motions to Intervene.
As it appears that the subject matter of cases 07-12368 and 07-12520 is directly related to the subject matter of the pending Motions in this matter, Case Numbers 07-12368 and 07-12520 will be held in abeyance pending the disposition of the Motions to Intervene in this matter.
All of which is Ordered.
