January 13, 2021 Filing 91 Joint MOTION for extension of time to Serve Color-Coded Daubert Tables by Defendants Ethicon, Inc., Ethicon, LLC, Johnson & Johnson. (Mouber, Bryan)
January 13, 2021 Opinion or Order Filing 90 ORDER: The undersigned U.S. Magistrate Judge, James P. O'Hara, and the presiding U.S. District Judge, Kathryn H. Vratil, have reviewed the parties' proposed pretrial order in preparation for the pretrial conference on January 15, 2021. Paragraph 4(b) of the proposed pretrial order, outlining more than 20 defenses, appears to have a significant amount of boilerplate and thus needs to be tightened up and clarified. That is, most of the stated defenses merely assert that plaintiffs won't be able to prove essential elements of their claims, and none of the defenses make clear whether they're affirmative in nature, such that defendants would bear the burden of proof at trial. So, to address these deficiencies, by no later than 2:00 p.m. on January 14, 2021, the parties must confer and then e-mail to the chambers of Judge Vratil and Judge O'Hara a revised version of paragraph 4(b) in Word format, with case citations to controlling authority if the parties disagree about whether any particular defense in affirmative in nature. Signed by Magistrate Judge James P. O'Hara on 1/13/2021. (This is a TEXT ENTRY ONLY. There is no.pdf document associated with this entry.)(ss)
January 12, 2021 Opinion or Order Filing 89 ORDER. As to the pending Daubert motions, the parties' briefs would be considerably more helpful to the Court if they correlated more closely with the expert reports and not overall summaries and characterizations of the putative opinions. Therefore, no later than 5 PM on January 15, 2021, the proponent of each Daubert motion shall file a PDF copy of each expert opinion which is at issue. The party shall assign a color code to each Daubert challenge (i.e. Dr. Klinge's opinion that Prolene Soft is defective because it is subject to particle loss and fraying is not reliable). Within each expert report, the party shall highlight in that same color the specific opinions which the party wishes to exclude. With this PDF, the party shall also file a simple chart which (1) quotes or summarizes the language of the opinion in question and (2) states the page in the expert report on which the opinion is found. Signed by District Judge Kathryn H. Vratil on 1/12/2021. (This is a TEXT ENTRY ONLY. There is no.pdf document associated with this entry.)(as)
