July 20, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 116 ORDER denying #113 Motion to Stay without prejudice to reconsideration by the Court after Defendant Pioneer's anticipated motion to dismiss is fully briefed.

However, the Court shall, sua sponte, reconsider the issue of a stay once the motion to dismiss is fully briefed. Signed by Judge Kari A. Dooley on 7/20/2020. (D'Amato, Joseph)
