Date Filed Document Text
October 7, 2019 Filing 7 MULTIDISTRICT LITIGATION panel order transferring case to: District of Massachusetts re MDL case number: 2768. (AG)
October 3, 2019 Opinion or Order Filing 6 ENDORSED ORDER: On September 18, 2019, Defendant Howmedica Osteonics Corp. removed this case from state court. (Doc. #1). According to the Notice of Removal, Howmedica was served on August 30, 2019. (Id.). Therefore, Howmedica's response to the Complaint was due September 25, 2019. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 81(c)(2). But no response to the Complaint has been filed, and Plaintiff Patti Duff has not promptly applied to the Clerk for entry of default pursuant to Local Rule 1.07(b). Accordingly, Duff is directed to show cause by October 9, 2019, why this action should not be dismissed for failure to prosecute pursuant to Local Rule 3.10(a). Signed by Judge Virginia M. Hernandez Covington on 10/3/2019. (MWS)
September 23, 2019 Opinion or Order Filing 5 RELATED CASE ORDER AND NOTICE of designation under Local Rule 3.05 - track 2. Signed by Judge Virginia M. Hernandez Covington on 9/23/2019. (TWL)
September 23, 2019 Opinion or Order Filing 4 ENDORSED ORDER: Counsel are directed to meet and confer, in person or by telephone, and by October 7, 2019, file a completed Case Management Report. This document can be found on Judge Covington's page of the Court's website at www.flmd.uscourts.gov. Please be advised that the Court's Case Management Report form is different from those used by other judges. Local Rule 3.05(c)(2)(E), M.D. Fla., explains that most track two cases, like the present case, "will be tried within one year after the filing of the complaint." To accomplish this goal, the Court believes that six to eight months is a sufficient period of time to conduct discovery. If the parties believe that more time than eight months will be needed to complete discovery, the parties should provide the Court with a detailed explanation as to why additional time is needed and a timeline for the discovery that is planned. The Court will then determine whether a Case Management Hearing is necessary before entry of a Case Management and Scheduling Order. Signed by Judge Virginia M. Hernandez Covington on 9/23/2019. (MWS)
