ORDER: The Court is in receipt of Plaintiffs' 3/3/2023 Joint Letter #318 , Plaintiffs' 7/11/2023 Letter #333 , and related motion filed on 7/20/2023 on behalf of Moving Defendants #334 , indicating that the parties have an outstanding dispute as to whether interrogatories are appropriate at this time considering the Court's 3/31/23 Opinion and Order. The Court notes that Moving Defendants' stated position as of their 3/3/2023 letter appeared to be that the Court's decision on the bank secrecy objections would shed light on "the proper scope of discovery in this case," and until the order on those motions was issued, the interrogatory dispute "ha[d] not yet ripened." (See Joint Letter, ECF No. 318, at 4.) Following the Court's 3/31/2023 Opinion, Moving Defendants represented in the 7/20/2023 motion #334 that the Opinion "authorized Plaintiffs' discovery on a tailored basis," and posited that "Plaintiffs' interrogatories exceed these limitations." (See Mot., ECF No. 334.) Moving Defendants' motion is denied, without prejudice. First, the motion does not comport with the Court's individual rules, which require parties to submit a joint letter summarizing each side's position with respect to the dispute. Second, although footnote 2 of the motion suggest that the parties met and conferred regarding this issue, the Court questions whether the parties have engaged in sufficient efforts to resolve the dispute in light of Plaintiffs' representation in their 7/11/2023 letter that Moving Defendants took the position at the meet and confer that the Court's Opinion "sets forth the exclusive means by which Plaintiffs may seek discovery of Defendants." (Pls.' Ltr., ECF No. 333.) Without making any finding as to whether Moving Defendants in fact took that position, the Court clarifies that although the 3/31/2023 Opinion addressed the scope of discovery requests and appropriate temporal limits, it did not expressly address the propriety of interrogatories at this juncture. Plaintiffs are respectfully directed to evaluate the scope of their proposed interrogatories in light of the Courts 3/31/2023 Opinion, and the parties are directed to meet and confer in an effort to narrow and/or resolve the dispute. Ordered by Magistrate Judge Taryn A. Merkl on 10/27/2023. (ALG) |
Filing 355 MEMORANDUM in Opposition to #348 Plaintiffs OBJECTIONS to decision denying motion regarding use of discovery in other cases (Joint Response filed on behalf of Defendants) filed by BLOM Bank SAL, Fransabank SAL. (Attachments: #1 Exhibit A) (Streeter, Jonathan) |
Filing 354 MEMORANDUM in Opposition to Plaintiffs' Appeal of Magistrate Judge Decision filed by Standard Chartered Bank. (Finn, Andrew) |
ORDER: Plaintiffs' Motion for Leave to Electronically File Document under Seal #353 is denied, without prejudice. The Court must be mindful of the long-recognized right of public access to judicial documents and the public's interest in monitoring the administration of justice. See King Pharms., Inc. v. Eon Labs, Inc., No. 04-CV-5540 (DGT) (RLM), 2010 WL 3924689, at *4 (E.D.N.Y. Sept. 28, 2010) (collecting cases). "The right of public access gives rise to a rebuttable presumption of public availability, the weight of which presumption 'must be governed by the role of the material at issue in the exercise of Article III judicial power and the resultant value of such information to those monitoring the federal courts.'" Id. (quoting United States v. Amodeo , 71 F.3d 1044, 1049 (2d Cir. 1995)); see also United States v. Aref , 533 F.3d 72, 83 (2d Cir. 2008); Lugosch v. Pyramid Co. of Onondaga, 435 F.3d 110 (2d Cir. 2006); Re IBM v. Lima, No. 20-CV-4573 (PMH), 2020 WL 6048773, at *1 (S.D.N.Y. Oct. 13, 2020) (ordering certain transcript excerpts sealed). This denial is without prejudice to Plaintiffs' refiling a revised application, which includes a cover letter proposing specific redactions and any additional authority on which they rely to support the sealing of specific portions of the third amended complaint and any exhibits (see ECF No. [353-1], [353-2], [353-3], [353-4]). Should they seek to seal specific portions of the third amended complaint or exhibits, Plaintiffs may refile Plaintiffs' motion (ECF No. #353 ), a cover letter explaining which redactions they seek and why, and a proposed redacted version of the documents on the public docket. Plaintiffs are also directed to simultaneously file a sealed version of the documents that indicates proposed redactions in a highlighted color other than yellow. Finally, the Court reminds counsel that parties' confidentiality designations do not provide an independent basis for sealing, particularly as to judicial documents. See Cumberland Packing Corp. v. Monsanto Co., 184 F.R.D. 504 (E.D.N.Y. 1999) (denying request for a protective order that would have required sealing of materials marked confidential by the parties). Likewise, documents or exhibits that are otherwise publicly available may not be filed under seal. Should nothing be filed by the parties by 11/7/2023 that justifies keeping ECF No. 353 and its attachments under seal, it will be promptly unsealed. Ordered by Magistrate Judge Taryn A. Merkl on 10/25/2023. (ALG) |
Filing 353 MOTION for Leave to Electronically File Document under Seal attaching Plaintiffs' Third Amended Complaint and Exhibits by All Plaintiffs. (Attachments: #1 Exhibit Third Amended Complaint, #2 Exhibit Exhibit 1 to TAC, #3 Exhibit Exhibit 2 to TAC, #4 Exhibit Exhibit 3 to TAC) (Osen, Gary) |
Filing 352 MANDATE of USCA as to #229 Notice of Appeal filed by Dr. Muhammad Baasiri, Muhammad Baasiri, Jammal Trust Bank SAL (Attachments: #1 Supporting Document) IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, ADJUDGED and DECREED that the Judgment of the District Court is VACATED and the cause is REMANDED for further proceedings consistent with this Courts opinion. Issued as Mandate: 10/16/2023. USCA# 21-2019. (VJ) |
ORDER: The Court is in receipt of Plaintiff's refiled Motion for Leave to Electronically File Document under Seal #350 . The Court granted Plaintiff's original Motion for Leave to Electronically File Document under Seal #349 on 10/13/2023. Accordingly, the refiled public version of the motion is administratively terminated as moot. Ordered by Magistrate Judge Taryn A. Merkl on 10/16/2023. (ALG) |
Filing 351 EXHIBIT originally filed as ECF 349-1 by All Plaintiffs.

ORDER: The Court is in receipt of Plaintiffs' letter #345 , requesting clarification of the Court's ruling from the bench and the Minute Entry and Order dated 9/27/2023. The Court's 9/27/2023 denial of Plaintiffs' motion #335 is applicable to the discovery provided by both Standard Chartered Bank and KBC Bank, for the reasons stated on the record. As set forth more fully on the record, Plaintiff has not demonstrated an "extraordinary circumstance or compelling need" so as to modify the protective order in this case as to the discovery provided by either bank. See generally S.E.C. v. TheStreet.Com, 273 F.3d 222, 229 (2d Cir. 2001); see id. at 230 (observing that it is "presumptively unfair for courts to modify protective orders which assure confidentiality and upon which the parties have reasonably relied"). Accordingly, for clarity, the Court notes that the Court's conclusions on September 27, 2023 -- both its rulings from the bench and the minute entry -- apply to the discovery produced by both Standard Chartered Bank and KBC Bank. In addition, Plaintiff's Motion for Leave to Electronically File Document under Seal ( #349 ) is granted; the exhibit filed at ECF 349-1 may be filed under seal in its entirety. Counsel is directed to file the approved document undersealas a separate entry. For instructions on filingsealed documents on ECF, see # Steps for E-filing Sealed Documents Civil Cases.

To aid the parties and the Court, when filing the approved documents undersealand the unsealed versions, the parties are directed to make clear in the docket text which publicly-filed document relates to whichsealed document, and vice-versa, and the original ECF Number for the document when it was first filed. When filing exhibits, counsel must indicate the original ECF Number in the description of the document. Ordered by Magistrate Judge Taryn A. Merkl on 10/13/2023. (ALG) |

ORDER: The Court is in receipt of Plaintiffs' letter #292 . Plaintiffs' letter does not establish that the parties met and conferred in a good faith effort to resolve these discovery matters in accordance with Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 37(a)(1) and EDNY Local Civil Rule 37.3(a). Prior to seeking judicial resolution of a discovery-related issue, Local Rule 37.3(a) requires parties to "attempt to confer in good faith in person or by telephone in an effort to resolve the dispute, in conformity with Fed. R. Civ. P. 37(a)(1)." Plaintiffs' letter mentions Plaintiffs' counsel indicating to defense counsel that "if Defendants' counsel preferred, Plaintiffs' counsel were also available to meet and confer on the issue by phone," and that Defendants' counsel did not respond. (Pls.' June 23, 2022 Letter, ECF No. 292, at 1-2.) This is not a sufficient effort to meet and confer to resolve this dispute "[p]rior to seeking judicial resolution." EDNY Local Rule 37.3(a). All counsel are respectfully reminded that they are expected to comply with both Local Rule 37.3 and Local Rule 26.4, which requires counsel to cooperate with one another in all phases of the discovery process, and to be courteous with one another.The Court also notes that the letter does not comport with Section 3.A of my individual rules, which requires parties to meet and confer and file a joint letter summarizing the nature of the dispute and the parties' respective positions. The parties are respectfully directed to meet and confer regarding these discovery requests and if, after meeting and conferring, the parties cannot come to an agreement, they are directed to file a joint letter outlining any disputes and what relief they seek.

Filing 260 Letter from Michael J. Sullivan to the Hon. Taryn A. Merkl by Societe Generale de Banque au Liban SAL (Sullivan, Michael) |
ORDER: In light of the Court's ruling on Plaintiffs' Letter Motion for Discovery #255 , Plaintiffs' Letter Motion to Compel #204 is granted in part, as set forth in the Court's prior Minute Entry and Order. (See October 8, 2021 ECF Minute Entry and Order.) So Ordered by Magistrate Judge Taryn A. Merkl on 10/12/2021. (Devanathan, Deepa) |
Minute Entry and Order: A telephonic Status Conference was held on 10/8/2021 before Magistrate Judge Taryn A. Merkl. Appearances by Gary Osen, Ari Ugar, Dina Gielchinsky and Michael Radine for Plaintiffs; Linda Goldstein, Michael McGinley and Tamar Mallat for Fransabank SAL and BLOM Bank SAL; Gassan Baloul, Joseph Alonzo and Mitchell Berger for Defendants Middle East Africa Bank SAL and Fenicia Bank; Robert Hamburg for Defendant Banque Libano-Francaise SAL; Elizabeth Foley for Defendants Dr. Muhammed Baasiri and Jammal Trust Bank SAL; Alex Lakatos for Defendant Bank Audi SAL; George Anhang for Defendant Bank of Beirut SAL. For the reasons further discussed on the record, Plaintiffs' Letter Motion for Discovery #255 is granted in part. As discussed, the Court finds that the Defendants who object to engaging in discovery have not demonstrated good cause to stay all discovery given the age and procedural posture of this case. See Contracto Ltd. v. Fast Search & Transfer Int'l, AS, No. 12-CV-1930 (JS) (ARL), 2012 WL 12252587, at *1 (E.D.N.Y. July 12, 2012) (citing Richards v. North Shore Long Island Jewish Health Sys., No. 10-CV4544 (LDW) (ETB), 2011 WL 4407518, at *1 (E.D.N.Y. Sept. 21, 2011) ("To determine whether a stay discovery is appropriate... courts consider the following factors: (1) whether the defendants have made a strong showing that the plaintiff's claim is not meritorious; (2) the breadth of discovery and burden of responding to it; and (3) the risk of unfair prejudice to the plaintiff.")). Analyzing these factors, the Court finds that the relatively small scope of discovery sought at this time, namely, a Rule 26(f) conference to plan discovery and issuance of third-party subpoenas, does not pose a significant burden on Defendants, who have not made a strong showing that Plaintiffs' claims are entirely lacking in merit, although the case may be narrowed by the pending motions to dismiss. In addition, given the age and procedural posture of the case, a continued stay risks unfair prejudice to Plaintiffs as staying discovery is likely to cause significant additional delays and/or hamper Plaintiffs' ability to prosecute the instant case. These factors do not apply to Defendants Dr. Muhammed Baasiri and Jammal Trust Bank SAL, as noted on the record, because their interlocutory appeal on sovereign immunity grounds is pending before the Second Circuit (see ECF No. 229). The parties are respectfully directed to meet and confer at an initial Rule 26(f) conference by 11/8/2021. A telephonic Status Conference will take place on 12/13/2021 at 10:15 a.m. before Magistrate Judge Taryn A. Merkl. The parties are directed to call the toll-free number (877) 336-1839. The access code is 3914302. The parties shall dial in five (5) minutes before the scheduled conference. So Ordered by Magistrate Judge Taryn A. Merkl on 10/8/2021. The Court notes that, on October 12, 2021, Michael J. Sullivan, Esq., submitted a letter #260 to inform the Court that he was in attendance at the 10/8/2021 Status Conference, appearing on behalf of Socit Gnrale de Banque au Liban S.A.L., et al., but did not state his appearance on the record at the conference.(AT&T Log #4:40-5:49.)
