July 18, 2019 Opinion or Order Filing 25860 ORDER - Upon considering the Response filed on behalf of ARTURO VARGAS and ROBERTO RAMIREZ JR. ("Plaintiffs") (Rec. Doc. 25855) IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that: 1. The Amaro Law Firm is exempt from appearing in Court on July 19, 2019 for the Show Cause Hearing. (See Rec. Doc. 25811).

July 18, 2019 Opinion or Order Filing 25859 ORDER - During a Status Conference on July 17, 2019, the Court announced its intent to sever from the MDL twelve cases in the B3 pleading bundle that assert only contract claims and allege no medical or personal injury claims. Four of the twelve cases were included in the mandatory mediation process established under Pretrial Order No. 67 (Rec. Doc. 25370, amended by Rec. Doc. 25509). Because the PTO 67 process could result in the settlement of these four cases, the Court does not sever them at this time. If the mediation does not resolve these cases (and assuming the parties conducted mediation in good faith, see Rec. Doc. 25370 at 4), the Court will sever them from the MDL. The other eight cases will be severed from the MDL. First, however, it must be determined where further proceedings for each of these cases will occur. Herein, the Court has listed what it understands to be the originating district court for each of the eight cases. IT IS ORDERED that by Friday, July 26, 2019, the parties in the above eight cases shall file a statement with the Court with the information contained herein. The Court will take appropriate action after these statements are filed. If the parties fail to file required statements, the Court will assume the above chart is correct and act accordingly. Signed by Judge Carl Barbier on 7/18/2019.(Reference: 11-00911, 11-02621, 12-0740, 13-04437, 16-03966, 17-02387, 17-03347, 17-03349, 17-03353, 17-03356, 17-03387, 17-03412)(cg)(cc: Robert Evans via US Mail)

Regarding the approximately 31 plaintiffs that BP believes are members of the Medical Benefits Settlement Class and have released their claims under the Medical Benefits Class Action Settlement Agreement, IT IS ORDERED that BP shall file a motion for summary judgment against these plaintiffs by no later than Wednesday, July 24, 2019. Plaintiffs shall file a response by no later than Wednesday, August 7, 2019. Regarding all cases in the B3 bundle other than those mentioned above, IT IS ORDERED that the parties shall meet and confer regarding a proposed joint case management order as stated on the record.

February 12, 2019 Filing 25385 CLAIMS APPEAL DETERMINATION AND REASONS, [Halliburton and Transocean Settlement]: Minute Entry for proceedings held before Magistrate Judge Joseph C. Wilkinson, Jr. Having reviewed these materials, the determination of the Claims Administrator is AFFIRMED essentially for the reasons provided by the Claims Administrator, which are wholly consistent with the Settlement Agreements, the Allocation and the court's orders approving the Settlement Agreements, the Distribution Model and the law supporting them. Claimant has failed to submit proof of the type required under the settlement and its implementing provisions to establish this kind of claim. The fact that claimant cannot be reached by his counsel is not a sufficient basis requiring a different result, and militates strongly against the exercise of equitable authority to grant his otherwise undocumented claim. (Reference: 12-970, 15-4143, 15-4146 and 15-4654)(mmv) (NEF: HON. CARL J. BARBIER and HESI/TRANSOCEAN SETTLEMENT CLAIMS ADMINISTRATOR)
February 12, 2019 Filing 25384 CLAIMS APPEAL DETERMINATION AND REASONS, [Halliburton and Transocean Settlement]: Minute Entry for proceedings held before Magistrate Judge Joseph C. Wilkinson, Jr. Having reviewed these materials, the determination of the Claims Administrator is AFFIRMED essentially for the reasons provided by the Claims Administrator, which are wholly consistent with the Settlement Agreements, the Allocation and the court's orders approving the Settlement Agreements, the Distribution Model and the law supporting them. Claimant's property is located well outside of the Real Property Sales compensation zone, and claimant has failed to submit purchase/sale documentation of the type required under the court-approved Distribution Model to establish this kind of claim. In addition, in claimant's initial appeal to the New Class Claims Administrator, he determined that his property was preliminarily eligible for compensation as Coastal Real Property, in the exercise of the administrator's own equitable authority and discretion. No further exercise of this court's equitable authority and discretion in these appeals is justified. (Reference: 12-970, 15-4143, 15-4146 and 15-4654)(mmv) (NEF: HON. CARL J.

Wilkinson, Jr: Having reviewed these materials, the determination of the Claims Administrator is AFFIRMED essentially for the reasons provided by the Claims Administrator and as more fully set out in my previous order, Record Doc. No. #25204 at pp. 3-5. The Claims Administrator's determination is wholly consistent with the Settlement Agreements, the Allocation and the court's orders approving the Settlement Agreements, the Distribution Model and the law supporting them. The conclusory statements set out in the "Affidavit in Support of Presentment" are insufficient to support a different result. (Reference: 12-970, 15-4143, 15-4146 and 15-4654)(mmv) (NEF: HON.

No. #25204 . Additionally, the documentation provided by claimant raises questions concerning the ownership of the property. (Reference: 12-970, 15-4143, 15-4146 and 15-4654)(mmv) (NEF: HON. CARL J.

No. #25204 at pp. 3-5. In addition, claimant's attempt to compare his property with the property of another claimant who received compensation is wholly inapposite. Unlike the other property, which was only 1,000 feet outside the compensable zone, this claimant's property is well outside the zone. The Claims Administrator's determination is wholly consistent with the Settlement Agreements, the Allocation and the court's orders approving the SettlementAgreements, the Distribution Model and the law supporting them. No basis requiring a different result, including no compelling equitable considerations, has been provided. (Reference: 12-970, 15-4143, 15-4146 and 15-4654)(mmv) (NEF: HON. CARL J.

January 18, 2019 Filing 25300 CLAIMS APPEAL DETERMINATION AND REASONS, [Halliburton and Transocean Settlement] : Minute Entry for proceedings held before Magistrate Judge Joseph C. Wilkinson, Jr: Having reviewed these materials, the determination of the Claims Administrator is AFFIRMED essentially for the reasons provided by the Claims Administrator. While the Corexit report and other medical reports submitted by claimant with this appeal may have some connection to any medical claim he may pursue, they have no relevance to the basis, framework or reasoning behind the Halliburton/Transocean Settlement Agreements and provide no support for the exercise of the court's equitable authority in this context. (Reference: 12-970, 15-4143, 15-4146 and 15-4654)(mmv) (NEF: HON. CARL J. BARBIER and HESI/TRANSOCEAN SETTLEMENT CLAIMS ADMINISTRATOR)
January 18, 2019 Filing 25299 CLAIMS APPEAL DETERMINATION AND REASONS, [Halliburton and Transocean Settlement]: Minute Entry for proceedings held before Magistrate Judge Joseph C. Wilkinson, Jr. Having reviewed these materials, the determination of the Claims Administrator is AFFIRMED essentially for the reasons provided by the Claims Administrator and the reasons discussed in my previous order addressing a similar appeal, Record Doc. No. #25212 . This property is located outside of the court-recognized Wetlands Real Property Zone. These claimants did not exercise the option to opt-out of these settlements. The Claims Administrator has already exercised his equitable authority to grant compensation for this claim under the Coastal Real Property framework. Equitable considerations do not justify a further extension of that authority to provide further compensation under the Wetlands Real Property category.

October 26, 2018 Filing 25113 CLAIMS APPEAL DETERMINATION AND REASONS, [Halliburton and Transocean Settlement]: Minute Entry for proceedings held before Magistrate Judge Joseph C. Wilkinson, Jr. Having reviewed these materials, the determination of the Claims Administrator is AFFIRMED essentially for the reasons provided by the Claims Administrator. This court finds no inconsistency of the type suggested by counsel in the treatment of these claims when compared to his other claimants who won appeals. With no specific proof of oiling of these properties and their location well beyond the affected zone, they are decidedly different from those whose appeals were granted. The Claims Administrator's determination is consistent with the Settlement Agreements, the Allocation and the court'sorders approving the Settlement Agreements, the Distribution Model and the lawsupporting them, including equitable considerations. No basis requiring a different result has been provided. (Reference: 12-970, 15-4143, 15-4146 and 15-4654)(mmv)

[Note to plaintiffs required to show cause on or before October 11, 2018: Because PTO 66 did not require plaintiffs to file their Particularized Statement of Claim in the Court's record, the Court will not in most instances be able to examine the docket to determine if a plaintiff responded to PTO 66 or what they submitted. Therefore, plaintiffs may need to attach proof of what they submitted with their show cause responses. Show cause responses should be filed in the MDL master docket, 10-md-2179, not in the docket for the individual case.] Signed by Judge Carl Barbier.

May 1, 2018 Filing 24428 STATUS REPORT # 58, 1st Quarter 2018 by Patrick A. Juneau (Attachments: #1 Exhibit A)(Reference: All cases)(Stanley, Richard)
May 1, 2018 Filing 24427 Minute Entry for proceedings held before Magistrate Judge Joseph C. Wilkinson, Jr: CLAIM APPEAL DETERMINATION AND REASONS [Halliburton and Transocean Settlement] The Claims Administrator has provided me with the Appeal Form; Appeal Determination Notice; Court Review Request; Claim Form asserting an Ecosystem claim and including claimants affidavit attesting to his status as an indigenous Moorish American National of the Continental United States... seeking payment of [$] 20 Billion; and Settlement Program Appeal Determination Letter concerning the appeal of Marcus O. Tate-El-Bey-Tey-Washitaw, Claim No. 359*******; denying his claim for payment from the Halliburton/Transocean Settlement Agreements. Having reviewed these materials, the determination of the Claims Administrator is AFFIRMED essentially for the reasons provided by the Claims Administrator. The necessity and requirement of receiving prior payments from the separate Deepwater Horizon Economic and Property Damages Settlement [DHEPDS] program or a neutrals settlement and compliance with Pretrial Order No. 60 are set out in detail in In re Oil Spill by the Oil Rig Deepwater Horizon, No. 2179, 2018 WL 334030 (E.D. La. Jan. 4, 2018). The United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit has recently affirmed the validity, enforceability and requirement of compliance with Pretrial Order No. 60 in InRe: Deepwater Horizon, (Eduardo Pineiro Perez v. BP, P.L.C. et al. and consolidated cases), 713 F. Appx 360, 363 (5th Cir. 2018). In addition, Washitaws DHEPDS claim was denied on grounds of fraud, waste or abuse. By its terms, the Halliburton/Transocean Settlement Agreements Distribution Model approved by the court expressly excluded from recovery any claimant who wassubject to a valid and final fraud, waste or abuse denial in the DHEPDS program. Record Doc. No. 18797 at p. 27. (NEF: HON. CARL J. BARBIER and HESI/TRANSOCEAN SETTLEMENT CLAIMS ADMINISTRATOR) (Reference: 12-970, 15-4143, 15-4146 and 15-4654)(caa)
May 1, 2018 Filing 24426 Minute Entry for proceedings held before Magistrate Judge Joseph C. Wilkinson, Jr: Claim Appeal Determination and Reasons (Halliburton and Transocean Settlement). The Claims Administrator has provided me with the Appeal Form, including the supporting briefs of claimants counsel; Appeal Determination Notice; Court Review Request; Claim Form; and Settlement Program Appeal Determination Letter concerning the appeal of Vivian L. Granado, Claim No. E4C*******; denying her claim for payment from the Halliburton/Transocean Settlement Agreements. Having reviewed these materials, the determination of the Claims Administrator is AFFIRMED essentially for the reasons provided by the Claims Administrator. The reasons supporting the requirements of having received prior payment of a Deepwater Horizon Economic and Property Damages Settlement [DHEPDS] claim or from a neutrals settlement and compliance with Pretrial Order No. 60 are set out in detail in In re Oil Spill by the Oil Rig Deepwater Horizon, No. 2179, 2018 WL 334030 (E.D. La. Jan. 4, 2018). In addition, the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit has recently affirmed the validity, enforceability and requirement of compliance with Pretrial Order No. 60 in In Re: Deepwater Horizon, (Eduardo Pineiro Perez v. BP, P.L.C. et al.and consolidated cases), 713 F. Appx 360, 363 (5th Cir. 2018). The assertions in the briefs of claimants counsel that her claim is still pending an eligibility determination with the claims administrator in the separate DHEPDSprogram supports denial of her claim for a Halliburton/Transocean settlement payment at this time. If she in fact ever receives such a DHEPDS payment, Granado will automatically become eligible for payment under the New Class distribution model from the Halliburton/Transocean Settlements. Claimant is instructed to resubmit this claim, when and if she receives a DHEPDS payment. (NEF: HON. CARL J.

February 21, 2018 Filing 24093 Minute Entry for proceedings held before Magistrate Judge Joseph C. Wilkinson, Jr: Claim Appeal Determination and Reasons (Halliburton and Transocean Settlement). The Claims Administrator has provided me with the Appeal Form, Appeal Determination Notice, Court Review Request, Claim Form, Settlement Program Appeal Determination Letter and letters from claimants counsel concerning the appeal of Andre Davis, Claim No. 6CA*******, denying his claim for payment from the Halliburton/Transocean Settlement Agreements. Having reviewed these materials, the determination of the Claims Administratoris AFFIRMED essentially for the reasons provided by the Claims Administrator, which are wholly consistent with the Settlement Agreements, the Allocation and the court's orders approving the Settlement Agreements, the Distribution Model and the law supporting them. No basis requiring a different result has been provided. Claimant never previously asserted the subsistence claim he now proffers, either in a lawsuit or in the separate DHEPDS program; nor did he comply with Pretrial Order No. 60. His prior payment from the DHEPDS was for a category of compensatory damages that does not support the recovery of punitive damages. The legal basis for these requirements concerning prior claim assertion, particular types of underlying compensatory damages to support punitive damages recovery and compliance with Pretrial Order No. 60 is explained in In re Oil Spill by the Oil Rig Deepwater Horizon, No. 2179, 2018 WL 334030 (E.D.

January 4, 2018 Filing 23806 Minute Entry for proceedings held before Magistrate Judge Joseph C. Wilkinson, Jr: Claims Appeal Determination and Reasons (Halliburton and Transocean Settlement). The Claims Administrator has provided me with the Appeal Determination Notice, Court Review Request, Claim Form and Settlement Program Appeal Determination letter concerning the appeal of Kirk Prest, Claim No. 6BC*******, denying his claim to proceeds from the Halliburton/Transocean Settlement Agreements. The Claims Administrator has also advised, however, that the claimant recently received notice of eligibility to receive a settlement payment of his separate subsistence claim, which will carry over automatically and result in payment to him from the Halliburton/Transocean settlements. Accordingly, this appeal is DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE AS MOOT for the reasons provided by the Claims Administrator.

The Claims Administrator has provided me with the Appeal Determination Notice, Court Review Request, Claim Form and Settlement Program Appeal Determination letter concerning the appeal of Billy Nghiem, Claim No. 321*******, denying his claim for payment from the Halliburton/Transocean settlements on grounds that "Claimant received a Fraud, Waste and Abuse Denial Notice (Claim #174185 in the Deepwater Horizon Economic and Property Damages Settlement ['DHEPDS']. That disqualifies him from eligibility in the New Class."Having reviewed these materials, the determination of the Claims Administrator is AFFIRMED essentially for the reasons provided by the Claims Administrator. The Claims Administrator's denial of this claim was consistent with both the foregoing law and the court's approved Distribution Model. (Reference: 12-970, 15-4143, 15-4146, 15-4654) (NEF: CJB, Claims Administrator)(gec)
January 4, 2018 Filing 23804 Minute Entry for proceedings held before Magistrate Judge Joseph C. Wilkinson, Jr: Claims Appeal Determination and Reasons (Halliburton and Transocean Settlement). This Appeal Determination addresses the denial of 80 claims for payment from the Halliburton/Transocean Settlement fund. Having reviewed these materials, the determination of the Claims Administrator is AFFIRMED, essentially for the reasons provided by the Claims Administrator. For all of the foregoing reasons, the Claims Administrators determination of these claims was consistent with the Settlement Agreements, the Neutral Allocation of the settlement funds, the courts orders approving the Settlement Agreements and its Distribution Model, and the courts subsequent orders and the law supporting them. They are therefore AFFIRMED. The Claims Administrator is directed to provide notice of this Appeal Determination to the claimants referenced above and their counsel, if any.

No. #23734 . GRANTED. Although the judgment was correct, the discussion of the validity of the fee agreement as a whole, as opposed to the validity of the forum selection clause only as a severable obligation, in the analysis section of the order and reasons was not necessaryto the judgment. Weber v. PACT XPP Techs., AG, 811 F.3d 758, 767, 773-75 (5th Cir. 2016); Afram Carriers, Inc. v. Moeykens, 145 F.3d 298, 301-02 (5th Cir. 1998).1 Accordingly, this motion is GRANTED. The unnecessarily addressed portions of the order and reasons certainly have no res judicata, collateral estoppel, preclusive or binding effect on the state court. In fact, the intervenors' Motion for Fees and Costs Pursuant to Contingency Fee Agreement, Record Doc. No. #23266 , was dismissed without prejudice. Record Doc. No. #23642 .
