May 3, 2016 Opinion or Order Filing 40 ORDER. Ms. Richard has not presented any evidence that Toyota's counsel has violated the Indiana Rules of Professional Conduct, any Indiana rules relating to the admission and discipline of attorneys, HIPAA, or any other law. Accordingly, bec ause no ethical violations have occurred, the Court need not consider whether disqualification or disbarment are appropriate remedies. Toyota's counsel has not engaged in any wrongdoing, and Ms. Richard's Motion to Disqualify Toyota's counsel is DENIED. Filing No. 33. (See order.) Signed by Judge Jane Magnus-Stinson on 5/3/2016. Copy sent to Plaintiff via U.S. Mail. (BGT)
February 23, 2016 Opinion or Order Filing 31 ENTRY Concerning Selected Matters. The plaintiff's motion for the Court's assistance in serving Toyota Motor Corporation ("TMC") with service of process [dkt. 12] is granted. The plaintiff's motion to file waiver of service of summons [dkt. 13] is denied as moot. The plaintiff's motion for the Court to hold personal jurisdiction over TMC [dkt.20]is denied as premature. The plaintiff's motion for an extension to time to file a reply to the defendants' answers [dkt. 21] is denied as unnecessary. The plaintiff's motions for clerk's entry of default [dkt. 23] and for default judgment [dkt. 24] against TMC are denied. TMC's motion to dismiss for insufficient service of process [dkt. 25] is denied. Although TMC is entitled to 60 days to file the waiver form, counsel for TMC is directed to notify the court in writing, within 14 days of the date this Entry is issued, whether service is expected to be waived so that the Court ca n plan accordingly. If service is not waived, the court will be required to expend judicial resources to effect proper service, an expense which could ultimately be charged to TMC consistent with Rule 4. TMC's assistance in this regard would be appreciated. Signed by Judge Jane Magnus-Stinson on 2/23/2016. Copy sent to Plaintiff via U.S. Mail. (BGT)
