December 23, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 443 ORDER denying as moot 378 Letter Motion for Leave to File Document; denying as moot 382 Motion; denying as moot 383 Motion; denying 386 Letter Motion to Consolidate Cases. On February 5, 2018, Defendant Bellevue Hospital filed a motion fo r summary judgment. Dkt 197. On February 26, 2020, Magistrate Judge Fox issued a report and recommendation recommending the Court deny the motion. Dkt. 377. Bellevue moved for leave to refile its motion for summary judgment on March 11, 2020. Dkt. 378. Two weeks later, Plaintiff filed two letters opposing the motion for leave to refile. Dkt. 382; Dkt. 383. On June 18, 2020, however, the Court declined to adopt the report and recommendation and granted summary judgment to Defendant Bellevue H ospital. Dkt. 392. For this reason, Bellevue's motion to refile its motion for summary judgment (pending at docket entry 378) is moot, as are Plaintiff's letters opposing that motion (pending at docket entries 382 and 383). On May 18, 2020 , Defendant Dennis McGowan filed a motion to consolidate this case with case number 19-CV-6332, which is currently pending before Judge Ramos. Dkt. 386. The Court denied this motion in its June 18, 2020 opinion addressing McGowan's motion to di smiss the Complaint. Dkt. 390 at 3 n.2. Thus, the motion to consolidate is no longer a pending motion. Accordingly, the Clerk of Court is accordingly directed to terminate the motions at docket entries 378, 382, 383, and 386. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Judge Ronnie Abrams on 12/23/2020) (mml)
