April 20, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 113 ORDER GRANTING MOTION TO STAY re 102 , 103 , 104 - Signed by JUDGE DERRICK K. WATSON on 4/20/2020. For the reasons set forth herein, the motion to stay, Dkt. No. 102, is GRANTED. As a result, all proceedings in this case, including the briefing required by the Court's January 24, 2020 Entering Order and Fidelity's Motion to Strike Jury Demand, Dkt. No. 103, are STAYED pending a decision by the Hawai'i Supreme Court in Grinpas et al. v. Kapaa 382, LLC et al., No. SCWC-14-0000870. Within thirty (30) days of entry of a decision by the Hawai'i Supreme Court, the parties shall file a joint status report in this case. (emt, )
January 8, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 101 ORDER VACATING JUDGMENT, VACATING ORDER IN PART, AND SETTING BRIEFING SCHEDULE re 49 , 50 - Signed by JUDGE DERRICK K. WATSON on 1/8/2020. Therefore, in light of the foregoing, the Clerk is instructed to VACATE the Judgment, Dkt. No. 50. In addition, the Clerk is instructed to VACATE the Order, Dkt. No. 49, to the extent the Order determined that Plaintiff's claims were barred by the statute-of-limitations. Because the basis for dismissing Pl aintiff's claims has been vacated, and this case has, thus, been re-opened, it is necessary to proceed anew. Having considered the parties' positions in their joint statement, the Court concludes that it is most efficient to set a briefing schedule in order to address the arguments raised in Defendants' motions that were not relied upon by the Court in its January 2014 Order dismissing Plaintiff's claims. Accordingly, the Court sets the following briefing schedule: On or before February 7, 2020, Defendants, individually or collectively, may file a supplemental brief in support of the arguments raised in their original motions and not as-yet conclusively determined by this Court. On or b efore February 21, 2020, Plaintiff may file a response brief in opposition to any argument raised in Defendants' supplemental brief(s). On or before March 6, 2020, Defendants may file an optional reply brief in support of their positions. (emt, )
