ORDER granting #76 Motion to Amend/Correct/Supplement. Without addressing the issue of repleading as of right, the Court grants plaintiff leave to amend as it finds justice so requires given the early stages of litigation in this forum and for substantially the reasons stated by Plaintiff. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 15(a)(2). The Court finds no undue delay, bad faith, futility, or prejudice to the defendant. See Addison v. Reitman Blacktop, Inc., 283 F.R.D. 74, 79 (E.D.N.Y. 2011). Indeed, it has been clear to the defendants since at least the pre-motion conference (if not earlier) that plaintiffs would seek to amend to disclaim federal claims as they had done previously through stipulation in other opioid litigations. See ECF 76:11 at 16:17-22, 24:2-20; ECF 76-1 at 2-7; ECF 76-9. Accordingly, the Court resets deadlines as follows: The amended complaint is due October 23, 2023; Defendants shall serve opposition papers on the amended complaint by November 22, 2023; Plaintiff shall serve any reply by December 7, 2023, and the fully bundled motion to remand shall be filed that same day consistent with the undersigned's individual rules Section III, Part F. With respect to plaintiff's sealing request, ECF #75 , the parties shall submit by October 20, 2023, by 5:00 PM a letter of no more than 5 pages explaining to why the amended complaint in whole should be sealed or otherwise providing a redacted complaint and proposed findings as to how any redactions meet "higher values" that "necessitate a narrowly tailored sealing." Lugosch v. Pyramid Co. of Onondaga, 435 F.3d 110, 126 (2d Cir. 2006). Ordered by Judge Orelia E. Merchant on 10/16/2023. (CS) |
