March 2, 2022 Opinion or Order Filing 17 Order by Judge Edward M. Chen DENYING #16 Stipulation on Aetna's Anticipated Motion to Remand and Defendants' Motion to Vacate Aetna's Purported Notice of Voluntary Dismissal. The hearing on Defendants' motion to vacate Aetna's notice of voluntary dismissal (Docket No. 19 in No. C-21-9827 and Docket No. 863 in No. C-19-2573) shall remain on 3/17/2022. If Aetna intends to move to remand in No. C-22-0740, then it should promptly get that motion on file. The Court acknowledges that Defendants have a motion to dismiss on file in No. C-22-0740 (Docket No. 11). Once Aetna files its motion to remand, the Court may need to move the hearing on that motion to dismiss, although it is likely that there will be overlap between that motion to dismiss and the motions to dismiss in the main Staley case (Docket Nos. 889 and 891 in No. C-19-2573).
