VWGoA is not identified as a defendant in the caption or body of the PFAC, and the PFAC does not contain any charging allegations directed against VWGoA. In their oppositions to VWGoAs motions, Plaintiffs assert that this omission was unintentional. VWGoAs Motion to Dismiss and Motion to Strike - and joinders thereto by Defendant Honeywell International, Inc. - are taken off calendar. Plaintiff is ordered to file a Second Amended Complaint within 14 days of this order. Defendants may then renew their motions to dismiss based on the allegations in Plaintiffs amended pleading.
