November 25, 2015 Opinion or Order Filing 89 Amended ORDER granting in part and denying in part 82 motion for partial summary judgment, and denying as moot 85 motion to strike. The original order at 87 is amended only to change the last sentence of the introduction to comport with the remedy of permitting further motion practice on the issue of disbursing the funds. Signed by Judge Laurel Beeler on 11/25/2015. (lblc3S, COURT STAFF) (Filed on 11/25/2015)
November 19, 2015 Opinion or Order Filing 87 ORDER by Judge Laurel Beeler granting in part and denying in part 82 Motion for Partial Summary Judgment. The court holds that Mr. Walker is the policy's sole beneficiary and that Mrs. Kottom has no direct claim under that policy. The cou rt declines, for now, to order the funds disbursed from the registry of court. Mr. Walker may move to have the funds released, and the parties may oppose, and reply in support of, that motion. The attached order discusses all this more fully. The court denies as moot 85 Mr. Walker's motion to strike evidence. (lblc3S, COURT STAFF) (Filed on 11/19/2015)
October 6, 2015 Opinion or Order Filing 81 STIPULATED UPDATED CASE MANAGEMENT SCHEDULING ORDER: Re 76 Joint Case Management Statement filed by Kathleen E. Kottom. Signed by Magistrate Judge Laurel Beeler on 10/6/2015. (lsS, COURT STAFF) (Filed on 10/6/2015)
April 10, 2015 Opinion or Order Filing 46 Order by Magistrate Judge Laurel Beeler denying without prejudice as premature 40 Motion for Summary Judgment and granting in part Plaintiff's 42 motion to extend the time to hear the Motion for Summary Judgment. For the reasons set fo rth in the attached order, the courts view is that the parties' personal and business dynamics might be better addressed by at least attempting mediation before litigation. There is room in the current schedule to accommodate an early summary-judgment motion after mediation and before any big spend on discovery. The court will address the timing of the motion at the next case-management conference in May.(Beeler, Laurel) (Filed on 4/10/2015)
