April 17, 2023 Opinion or Order Filing 86 MEMO ENDORSEMENT on re: #85 Letter, filed by UBS Securities LLC, UBS AG London Branch. ENDORSEMENT: The Court is in receipt of the above joint letter, discussing whether briefing on Plaintiffs' motion to remand should be done in tandem with responses to the turnover petition, or whether briefing should be sequenced. (Dkt. #85). In light of the above discussion, the Court believes that it would be most efficient to sequence briefing, and to tie responses to the turnover petition to this Court's resolution of the remand motion. The Court believes that Defendants can properly address issues of federal question and supplemental jurisdiction, as well as predominance, in response to Plaintiffs' motion to remand without tandem briefing on the turnover petition. However, in order to allow Defendants time to adequately brief these issues, the Court believes that a slightly longer briefing schedule is warranted. Thus, Defendants may submit their response to Plaintiffs' motion to remand by May 5, 2023. Plaintiffs may submit their reply by May 19, 2023. The Court adopts the parties' proposal for responses to the turnover petition upon this Court's resolution of the motion to remand. ( Responses due by 5/5/2023, Replies due by 5/19/2023.) (Signed by Judge Katherine Polk Failla on 4/17/2023) (rro)
