January 18, 2022 Opinion or Order Filing 269 MEMO ENDORSEMENT: on re: #267 Response in Support of Motion, filed by Sberbank of Russia PJSC. ENDORSEMENT: The Court views the current basis for the motion to dismiss (see Docket # 258) to be different from the basis posited in Sberbank's original request for a stay (Docket # 244, relying on Docket # 206). Sberbank may rely on its original letter (Docket # 244) seeking a stay, if it likes, though for the "strong showing" argument, the Court will need to see a new response from plaintiff on the stay issue that addresses the arguments made in Docket # 258. When the parties respond to Judge Carter's directive (Docket # 266) regarding a proposed discovery plan, they should at the same time send the undersigned a letter that makes joint or separate proposals as to the briefing of the motion for a stay. Finally, the Court adheres to its view that there shall be no stay pending Sberbank's motion for a stay. That being said, the contemplated jurisdictional discovery should take place as soon as possible. To the extent it can be prioritized by the parties vis-a-vis non-jurisdictional discovery, it is certainly appropriate to do so and would be in Sberbank's interest to do so. SO ORDERED.

December 22, 2021 Opinion or Order Filing 251 ORDER granting #249 Letter Motion for Extension of Time. Notwithstanding the objections to this request as stated in Docket # 250, the request is granted.

P. 29(b) so that the Court will not continually be asked to rule on requests of this kind. The parties should be reasonable in judging the burdens on the opposing party of particular deadlines and should not assume that any extension will necessarily affect the "time set for completing discovery."

The pre-motion conference requirement is waived. Briefing shall be in accordance with paragraph 2.B of the Court's Individual Practices. In the meantime, the March 17, 2020, Order remains in effect. Nothing in this Order shall be construed as preventing a non-party or a party from seeking to enforce any rights it may have under Rule 45 with respect to any subpoena. Finally, the Court suggests that the parties consult further about their positions in this matter in an attempt to reach a reasonable compromise inasmuch as both sides take a risk in seeking to have the Court adjudicate a motion for a stay of discovery. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Magistrate Judge Gabriel W. Gorenstein on 5/04/2020) (ama)

March 17, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 136 ORDER: terminating #130 Letter Motion for Discovery. The Court has reviewed Docket # 130, 131 and 132. Plaintiffs do not in their letters seek an order requiring the defendants to meet pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(f). It thus appears that plaintiff at this time would not oppose a motion by defendants to stay discovery - a motion that defendants never actually made to the Court but presumably are ready to make. On the other hand, plaintiffs wish to ensure that documents they deem relevant to their claims are preserved. The Court has not issued a stay of discovery in this matter. If a non-party will not voluntarily stipulate to preservation of materials, plaintiffs have leave to serve a subpoena on the non-party in accordance with Fed. R. Civ. P. 45. Any dispute with the nonparty may be resolved by means of an application compliant with paragraph 2.A of the Court's Individual Practices. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Magistrate Judge Gabriel W. Gorenstein on 3/17/2020) (ama)
