In light of the parties' agreement, and the fact that the above-captioned actions involve common questions of law and fact, it is hereby ORDERED that pursuant to Rule 42(a)(2) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, the above-captioned cases are consolidated under case number 21-CV-6296 (JMF). Notwithstanding such consolidation, the consolidated cases will "retain their separate identities." Hall v. Hall, 138 S. Ct. 1118, 1128-31 (2018). The Clerk of Court is directed to consolidate the above-captioned actions under case number 21-CV-6296 and to close the other twenty-four actions listed above. All future filings in the consolidated actions are to be made only under case number 21-CV-6296. It is hereby ORDERED that all orders, pleadings, motions, and other documents served or filed in the consolidated actions shall bear the following caption: as further set forth herein. The Clerk of Court is directed to conform the docket in 21-CV-6296 to the caption above. Plaintiffs' motions for summary judgment shall be filed by September 23, 2021, and shall be limited to 30 pages in length; Defendant's oppositions to Plaintiffs' motions for summary judgment and cross-motions to dismiss and/or for summary judgment shall be filed by October 25, 2021, and shall be limited to a single, consolidated memorandum of law not to exceed 45 pages in length; Plaintiffs' replies and oppositions to any cross motions shall be filed by November 9, 2021, and shall be limited to a single, consolidated memorandum of law not to exceed 45 pages in length; and Defendant's replies in support of cross-motions shall be filed by November 24, 2021, and shall be limited to 15 pages in length. The Court hereby invites the EEOC to submit an amicus brief seven days after the first brief filed by the party that the EEOC is supporting (or, if filed in support of both parties or neither party, then seven days after Plaintiffs file their motions for summary judgment). In extending this invitation, the Court takes no position on the substance of the parties' arguments concerning the interest, if any, of the EEOC and whether any deference would be owed to its views. It is ORDERED that Plaintiffs' counsel shall promptly serve a copy of this Order on the EEOC and shall file proof of such service on the docket. Upon review of the parties' submissions in response to the Court's July 29, 2021, Order to Show Cause, see ECF Nos. 14, 18, the Court is satisfied that there is subject-matter jurisdiction given that the underlying arbitrations involved claims under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act. See Doscher v. Sea Port Grp. Secs., LLC, 832 F.3d 372, 388 (2d Cir. 2016). This Order shall apply to any other case referenced in Plaintiffs' counsel's letter of August 12, 2021, see ECF No. 15, that is subsequently assigned or reassigned to the undersigned. SO ORDERED.
