Filing 2248
ENDORSED ORDERThis case is before the Court on Carl Grant, Jr.'s pro se "Compliant [sic] Against the Engle Trust Fund Distribution" (Doc. 2237), as well as his subsequent "Motion for Extension of Time" (Doc. 2242) and Motion for Appointment of Pro Bono Counsel (Doc. 2243). Mr. Grant purports to file a complaint against the Engle Trust Fund and several Engle plaintiffs' attorneys - Stanley Rosenblatt, Susan Rosenblatt, Charlie Farah, and Norwood Wilner. While Mr. Grant captions the complaint as being filed in the United States District Court in and for the Middle District of Florida, Mr. Grant's complaint is filed on a Florida Bar Inquiry/ Complaint Form. (Doc. 2237 at 2-5). Thus, it is unclear whether Mr. Grant intended to file a complaint in federal court or to file a complaint with the Florida Bar. Moreover, Mr. Grant filed the complaint and motions on the Engle Master Docket, No. 3:09-cv-10000, which was not created to entertain complaints and motions pertinent to individual cases. Rather, the Court established the Engle Master Docket to "serve as a 'master' case in which the Court and the parties may file papers applicable to all the cases." (Doc. 1 at 3-4) (emphasis added). Thus, if Mr. Grant wishes to file a complaint in this Court, he must open a separate civil case file and either pay the filing fee or take the necessary steps to proceed in forma pauperis.Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED:1.Carl Grant, Jr.'s "Compliant [sic] Against the Engle Trust Fund Distribution" (Doc. 2237) is DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE. 2.If Mr. Grant wishes to file a complaint in federal court, he must refile the complaint by opening a new civil case and either paying the filing fee or taking the steps necessary to proceed in forma pauperis. Mr. Grant must comply with all applicable Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and Local Rules. 3.Mr. Grant's Motion for Extension of Time (Doc. 2242) and Motion for Appointment of Pro Bono Counsel (Doc. 2243) are DENIED AS MOOT.4.The Court directs the Clerk not to file any further submissions from Mr. Grant on the Engle Master Docket.SO ORDERED.

Filing 2238
ENDORSED ORDER "On October 3, 2018, the Court entered an Order Doc. #2234 detailing the proposed distribution of funds which had been levied as sanctions against the Wilner Firm, P.A. and Farah & Farah, P.A. under the Court's July 23, 2018 Order Doc. #2216. The Court gave any party or counsel an opportunity to object to the Court's proposal. Other than the claim received by the U.S. Attorney for reimbursement of fees and expenses incurred in its Special Master role, the Court received no objection or other filing in response. After deliberation, the Court is now prepared to disburse the funds consistent with the proposal set forth in its October 3, 2018 Order. As of February 5, 2019, there resides in the Court's registry $4,457,644.49 (accruing interest daily). The Court orders the Clerk to disburse these funds as follows: 1. $435,129 to the U.S. Attorney for the Middle District of Florida to reimburse the U.S. Attorney for the time and costs expended in her Special Master role during the sanctions litigation. The Court expresses its appreciation to the U.S. Attorney and her assistants who performed this task diligently and admirably. 2. $400,000 to the Florida Bar's Henry Latimer Center for Professionalism which, in conjunction with the Young Lawyers Division of The Florida Bar, will develop and maintain long-term professionalism and ethics programming for Florida law schools, as well as young Florida lawyers. Before implementing this program, the Center for Professionalism and Young Lawyers Division will report to the Court on the proposed content and dissemination of the program and consult with the Court on what role it might play in furthering the goals of the program. Thereafter, the Center for Professionalism and the Young Lawyers Division will file with the Court an annual report on the status of the program. 3. The balance of the funds (including accrued interest), which will be at least $3,622,000, to the Florida Bar Foundation, which will disburse these funds to qualified legal aid organizations in the Middle District of Florida to assist litigants in obtaining representation in court. The Foundation will allocate these funds in rough proportion to the number of Engle cases that emanated from the respective divisions of the Middle District. This means that 60% of the funds must be disbursed to qualified legal aid organizations primarily serving the counties comprising the Jacksonville Division, 22% of the funds to qualified legal aid organizations primarily serving the counties comprising the Orlando and Ocala Divisions, 15% of the funds to qualified legal aid organizations primarily serving the counties comprising the Tampa Division, and 3% of the funds to qualified legal aid organizations primarily serving the counties comprising the Fort Myers Division. The Foundation may retain $75,000 (and any interest that accrues on the funds while in possession of the Foundation) to compensate it for its administration of this program. The Foundation may establish such procedures and criteria necessary to determine how to disburse these funds within the parameters set forth in this paragraph. The Court will play no further role in determining which legal aid organizations receive funds or how much they will receive. However, the Court does expect that the funds will be disbursed as soon as reasonably possible, consistent with proper practices. No later than July 1, 2019, the Foundation will file a status report with the Court and every 90 days thereafter until all funds have been disbursed.The Clerk is instructed to send a copy of this Order and to disburse the funds as provided herein to the addressees listed below.DONE AND ORDERED in Jacksonville, Florida the 6th day of February, 2019. Signed by Judges William G. Young, Timothy J. Corrigan, Marcia Morales Howard, and Roy B. Dalton, Jr. on 2/6/2019. (EES)

Filing 2234
ORDERFollowing implementation of the Court's July 23, 2018 Order (Doc. 2216) directing transfer of $4,834,735.69 from the Court's registry to the Federal Engle Tobacco Settlement Fund and terminating the litigation, there remains in the Court's registry (as of September 6, 2018), $4,419,705.98, consisting of the $4,329,668.43 levied as sanctions against the Wilner Firm, P.A. and Farah & Farah, P.A. under the Court's July 23, 2018 Order, plus accrued interest. The Court has now turned its attention to the disposition of these remaining funds. While the Court is not aware of any claims or entitlements to these funds by any party or counsel in this action, in an abundance of caution, the Court has determined to notify the parties and counsel of the Court's proposed distribution of these sanctions funds and to give any party or counsel an opportunity to object.First, the Court is currently discussing with the U.S. Attorney potential reimbursement of the $435,129.12 in attorney time and costs expended in its Special Master role during the sanctions litigation.Second, as well-documented in the Court's sanctions orders (Docs. 2181 and 2216), this case raised troubling issues concerning a lack of professional and ethical conduct by certain counsel. The Court is therefore considering allocating a portion of the sanctions proceeds to Florida Bar or Florida Bar Foundation professionalism and ethics programming. Third, as recounted in the Court's original sanctions order (Doc. 2181), the sanctioned conduct in this case caused delay in access to the courts for other litigants. The Court therefore deems it appropriate that the bulk of the sanctions funds be disbursed to qualified legal aid organizations whose purpose is to increase access to the courts for those who do not otherwise have it. The Court would allocate these resources to legal aid organizations in the Middle District of Florida in rough proportion to the number of Engle cases that emanated from the respective divisions of the Middle District. The Court plans to consult with individuals with relevant expertise in arriving at specific allocations.Any party or counsel that wishes to object to the Court's proposal must do so no later than October 17, 2018. If a party or counsel has no objection, there is no need to respond to this Order.DONE AND ORDERED in Jacksonville, Florida, this 3rd day of October, 2018. Signed by Judges William G. Young, Timothy J. Corrigan, Marcia Morales Howard, and Roy B. Dalton, Jr. on 10/3/2018. (EES)

ENDORSED ORDER re #2137This case is before the Court on the Special Master's Status Report and Recommendation. (Doc. 2137). In the Status Report, the Special Master recommends a 61-day extension, or until August 1, 2016, to complete the final Report and Recommendation. The Special Master cites the scope and complexity of the investigation, which involves more than 800,000 pages of documents (id. at 2), as the reason for requiring extra time. The Court finds good cause to grant the recommended extension. However, given the circumstances and the length of time already elapsed, the Court directs the Special Master to complete the Report by August 1, 2016. No further extensions will be granted absent truly exigent circumstances. Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED:The Special Master's recommendation for an extension until August 1, 2016 to submit the final Report and Recommendation (Doc. 2137) is GRANTED. DONE AND ORDERED at Jacksonville, Florida this 31st day of May, 2016. Signed by Judge William G. Young, Judge Timothy J. Corrigan, Judge Marcia Morales Howard, and Judge Roy B.

ENDORSED ORDER entered #1526 Motion to Compel Plaintiffs' Counsel from Lieff Cabraser Heimann & Bernstein, LLP to comply with the Court's Case Management Orders and not interfere with the conduct of the Compulsory Medical Examinations "May 28, 2014- After careful consideration and reflection on the extensive record herein, the Court has determined to enter no order. Unfortunately, these briefs are marred by posturing and stridency unworthy of the search for justice in this massive undertaking, when what is called for is reasonable accommodation.Counsel should understand that, whenever I'm in chambers and not on the bench, I am available telephonically at a moment's notice to resolve any disputes as they may arrive over these compulsory medical examinations. But be warned. As an incentive to act reasonably, the Court will impose discovery and monetary sanctions on the party it finds least reasonable in any dispute it is required to adjudicate. William G. Young, District Judge". Signed by Judge William G. Young on 5/28/2014. (EES)
