Filing 290 MEMO ENDORSEMENT on re: #285 Letter filed by UBS AG. ENDORSEMENT: The Non-Fixing Banks' application for an order compelling production of the Incorporated Materials is DENIED WITHOUT PREJUDICE. While the Court agrees that the Incorporated Materials are integral to the TAC and may be considered in connection with the Non-Fixing Banks' forthcoming motion to dismiss, the Non-Fixing Banks have not provided any support for the proposition that a plaintiff can be compelled to produce supporting materials in advance of discovery. The Court also rejects the Non-Fixing Banks' argument that the protective order provides for turnover of the Incorporated Materials. In the event the Incorporated Materials become germane to the Non-Fixing Banks' personal jurisdiction defense, the parties are free to seek jurisdictional discovery. (Signed by Judge Valerie E. Caproni on 7/10/2017) (mro) |

Scott Nicholson, John Hayes. ENDORSEMENT: The Court appreciates the parties' efforts in designing a tutorial to assist the Court in understanding the markets involved in these cases. The Court requests that the parties reconsider the proposal to have litigating attorneys be the presenters rather than having subject matter experts present. (The Court would be prepared to order that no statements made during the tutorial can be considered as evidence or used for cross examination.) In all other respects, the Court approves of the parties' joint proposal as set forth above. All parties participating in the tutorial shall appear before the Court on September 9, 2015 at 10:00 a.m. in Courtroom 443 of the Thurgood Marshall U.S. Courthouse, 40 Foley Square, New York, New York, 10007. With respect to contested topics, the Court agrees with Defendants that it shall be sufficient for the parties to exchange demonstratives no less than 10 days prior to the tutorial; the objecting party shall have an opportunity to respond at the conclusion of the proposing party's presentation. (Status Conference set for 9/9/2015 at 10:00 AM in Courtroom 443, 40 Centre Street, New York, NY 10007 before Judge Valerie E. Caproni.) (Signed by Judge Valerie E.

Filing 81 JOINT LETTER addressed to Judge Valerie E. Caproni from Plaintiffs and Defendants dated July 1, 2015 re: the June 10, 2015 Order. Document filed by Norman Bailey, Robert Ceru, Christopher Depaoli, John Hayes, Laurence Hughes, KPFF Investment, Inc., Kevin Maher(on behalf of those similarly situated), Eric Nalven, J. Scott Nicholson, Don Tran.(Hart, Barbara) |
Filing 80 JOINT ORDER NO. 1: 1. After meeting and conferring, the parties in the above-captioned cases shall submit a joint letter of no more than 5 pages by July 1, 2015 setting forth the parties' proposal for presenting such a tutorial to the Court. The letter shall include a proposed agenda of topics to be addressed and suggested dates for the tutorial. The topics suggested above are not intended to be mandatory nor all-inclusive; the parties should instead propose any topic that would be helpful for the Court to better understand the relevant markets. Interim class counsel in both MDLs and Defendants' Liaison Counsel in the Gold MDL should take the lead in facilitating input from the parties. While the Court anticipates that certain subjects may be unique to the gold or silver market, to the extent possible, subjects that are relevant to both markets should be addressed jointly. The content of the tutorial should be confined to factual background information and should not include the merits of the parties' arguments: to the extent there are material factual disputes, it may be necessary for Plaintiffs and Defendants to present separately on particular topics. 2. Any party wishing to respond to the July 1, 2015 joint submission shall file a letter of no more than 2 pages by July 10, 2015. (Signed by Judge Valerie E. Caproni on 6/10/2015) Filed In Associated Cases: 1:14-md-02573-VEC et al. (As per direction of Chambers on 6/10/2015, this order is to be spread to all affiliated cases.) (spo) |
