August 6, 2015 Opinion or Order Filing 19 ORDER granting #14 Letter Motion for Extension of Time. Approved. (Signed by Judge Thomas P. Griesa on 8/6/2015) (kl)
August 6, 2015 Opinion or Order Filing 18 ORDER re: #11 Letter request contesting plaintiffs' claim of relatedness of this case to a prior pending case, filed by Argentine Republic. On August 3, 2015, nearly four months after the complaint was referred to the undersigned, the Republic wrote the court a letter asking that the case be "returned to the Clerk for random selection of a judge to preside." See Letter from the Republic to the Court (Aug. 3, 2015) (Dkt. #11). The Republic argues that it was improper for the court to accept the case as related given that the Repsol action is no longer pending. Although Rule 13(a)(2) establishes a presumption against relatedness unless both cases are pending, the court feels that plaintiffs' overall showing of relatedness overcomes this presumption. Plaintiffs themselves are allegedly absent members of the Repsol class whose claims were un-adjudicated when Repsol settled. Defendant is the same party, the Republic of Argentina. Moreover, there is considerable factual overlap between the two cases. Finally, the court notes that the Republic did not challenge the relatedness of these cases for four months, during which the parties and the court approved extensions to certain matters. For these reasons, the Republic's request to reassign the case is here by denied. (As further set forth in this Order) (Signed by Judge Thomas P. Griesa on 8/6/2015) (kl)
