April 12, 2016 Opinion or Order Filing 694 USCA OPINION as to #688 Notice of Appeal,, filed by Julie Perusse, Christine Fleckles, Teachers' Retirement System of Louisiana, Alden Chace. USCA Case Number 14-2853-cv. Plaintiffs appeal from a judgment of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (Swain, J.) granting summary judgment to defendants Pfizer, Inc. and several of its officers and directors (collectively, "Pfizer"). Plaintiffs claim that Pfizer violated 10(b), 20(a), and 20A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by making misrepresentations that concealed cardiovascular risks associated with two of its drugs. After discovery, the district court issued an order pursuant to Federal Rule of Evidence 702 excluding Plaintiffs' expert on loss causation and damages from testifying at trial. Without the expert's testimony, Plaintiffs could not establish essential elements of their claims, so the district court granted judgment in favor of Pfizer. We conclude that the district court's rationales for excluding the testimony were inadequate to justify excluding it in its entirety. We further conclude that the district court erred in its earlier summary judgment ruling that no reasonable jury could find Pfizer liable for certain statements made by companies that owned the drugs before Pfizer. Accordingly, the judgment of the district court is VACATED and the matter is REMANDED for further proceedings Catherine O'Hagan Wolfe, Clerk USCA for the Second Circuit. Certified: 04/12/2016. (nd)

May 21, 2014 Opinion or Order Filing 662 ORDER. Plaintiffs' Motion in Limine no. 8, which seeks the exclusion of "reference to claims that have been dismissed, or claims or legal theories that Plaintiffs have abandoned, changed, and/or modified," is denied without prejudice to reassertion in connection with particular arguments at trial. This Order resolves docket entry no. 558. Denying #558 Motion in Limine. (Signed by Judge Laura Taylor Swain on 5/21/2014) (rjm)
May 21, 2014 Opinion or Order Filing 661 ORDER. Plaintiffs' Motion in Limine No. 9, which seeks the preclusion of "evidence or argument relating to affirmative defenses that were not asserted in Defendants' answer," is granted to the extent that Defendants' Answer is not to be construed to assert any affirmative defense not specifically plead therein. This order does not preclude motion practice seeking leave to amend pleadings, nor does it preclude any arguments in opposition to such motion practice or arguments with respect to the admissibility of particular evidence. This Order resolves docket entry no. 560. Granting #560 Motion in Limine. (Signed by Judge Laura Taylor Swain on 5/21/2014) (rjm)
May 21, 2014 Opinion or Order Filing 660 ORDER. Defendants' Motion in Limine No. 8 is granted and the expert testimony of Daniel R. Fischel is excluded from the trial of this action. Because the Court grants Defendants' Motion in Limine No. 8, thereby excluding the testimony of Plaintiffs' damages expert Daniel R. Fischel from the upcoming trial of this action, Plaintiffs' Motion in Limine No. 11 (docket entry no. 538) to strike the rebuttal damages testimony of Paul A. Gompers is granted on the sole ground that, in the absence of the testimony of Fischel, Gompers' proposed testimony is irrelevant. This Order resolves docket entries no. 521 and 538.

August 8, 2012 Opinion or Order Filing 392 ENDORSED LETTER addressed to Magistrate Judge Henry B Pitman from Jay W Eisenhofer dated 8/2/2012 re: Plaintiffs' request for their spoliation motion before Judge Swain. ENDORSEMENT: Plaintiffs' request to file their spoliation motion before Judge Swain is essentially an application for a limited modification of Judge Swain's Order of Reference. Accordingly, counsel should raise with Judge Swain in the first instance the question of whether she wants to address the motion or whether she wishes me to do so. The length of the briefs to be submitted in connection with the motion should be decided by the judicial officer who will resolve the motion. If defendants wish to file their spoliation before me, they may do so. With respect to all spoliation motions made before me, the opening and opposition briefs are to be limited to 30 pages, exclusive of the table of contents and table of authorities. Reply briefs are limited to 18 pages. All briefs are to be prepared in 12-point, non-proportional type (text and footnotes) with one-inch margins on all sides. Text is to be double spaced; footnotes may be single-spaced. (Signed by Magistrate Judge Henry B. Pitman on 8/8/2012) Copies Sent By Chambers(cd)
