| Filing 27 MINUTE entry before the Honorable Thomas M. Durkin: The Court has reviewed the parties' positions on setting a discovery schedule. R. 24. Defendants' position is that discovery should be stayed pending resolution of the motion to compel arbitration that Defendants intend to file. Plaintiffs' position is that discovery should proceed alongside Defendant's motion. It is proper to stay discovery pending the resolution of a motion to compel arbitration, and such a stay supports goals such as efficiency and reduced expense. See Coinbase, Inc. v. Bielski, 599 U.S. 736, 743, 747 (2023) (holding that district courts are required to stay their proceedings pending interlocutory appeal of motion to compel arbitration). Discovery is thus stayed until resolution of Defendants' motion to compel arbitration. Plaintiffs may renew their motion for discovery if they require particularized discovery to respond to the motion to compel arbitration. Mailed notice.

| Filing 23 MOTION by Defendants PDD Holdings Inc., WhaleCo Inc. for extension of time to Answer or Otherwise Respond to Amended Complaint (Turner, Serrin) [Transferred from Illinois Northern on 5/23/2024.] |
| Filing 22 MINUTE entry before the Honorable Thomas M. Durkin: Defendants have filed a motion to compel arbitration, R. 17, and the parties have filed a joint submission indicating that they cannot agree to a briefing schedule, R. 20. In the joint submission, Plaintiffs state that they "are not in a position to agree to a proposed briefing schedule until we see Defendants' motion to compel and understand what discovery may be necessary." Id. at p. 4. The parties are already required to file a joint status report by 2/23/24. R. 11. The parties should include in the joint status report, now that Plaintiffs have reviewed Defendants' motion, if they can agree to a briefing schedule on Defendants' motion as well as a schedule for arbitration-related discovery. If the parties still cannot reach an agreementfor example, if Defendants maintain that Plaintiffs are not entitled to arbitration-related discoveryPlaintiffs should state 1) the specific discovery they plan to seek and 2) the relevance of that discovery for their response to Defendants' motion. Defendants should give their reasons why they oppose such a request, if in addition to those already noted in R. 20. Mailed notice. (ecw, ) [Transferred from Illinois Northern on 5/23/2024.] |
