May 10, 2022 Opinion or Order Filing 1355 (Text-Only) ORDER: This matter is before the Court on two letters on behalf of the Defendants in this MDL. [See ECF Nos. #1353 , #1354 .] Defendants ask the Court to suspend their obligation to answer or respond to the amended complaints of the Direct Action Plaintiffs (DAPs) in light of the pending case management issues related to a possible consolidated master complaint and answer. [See ECF Nos. #1231 , #1232 , #1233 , #1234 , #1236 , #1237 .] Except for Sysco and Armory Investments, counsel for DAPs agreed not to insist on a response to their amended complaints so long as Defendants provided a list of affirmative defenses no later than May 27, 2022. [See ECF No. #1354 at 1.] Sysco and Armory Investments object to deferring the response date on the ground that they have been and continued to be prejudiced by the delay. [See ECF No. [1354-1].] While the Court is sympathetic with Sysco and Armory Investment's concerns, the Court agrees that outstanding case management issues warrant the suspension of Defendants' duty to answer or otherwise fully respond to amended DAP complaints until those issues are resolved. In the forthcoming case management order, the Court will set a schedule for answering or otherwise responding to the DAP complaint(s). In the meantime, Defendants must provide each DAP with a list of affirmative defenses no later than May 27, 2022. It is so ordered. Ordered by Magistrate Judge Hildy Bowbeer on 5/10/2022.(MJA)

If disputes remain after counsel has completed their good faith meet and confer, Cash-Wa may file a new motion with regard to those disputes. Cash-Wa is reminded to comply with the Local Rules for the District of Minnesota and this Court's Practice Pointers, including but not limited to the requirement that it obtain a hearing date from the chambers of the undersigned before filing any such motion.
