March 22, 2023 Opinion or Order Filing 715 JUDGMENT signed by JUDGE LORETTA C. BIGGS on 03/22/2023, that, pursuant to the jury verdict, Plaintiff Laura Walls recover the sum of $275,000 plus interest and court costs, from Defendant Ford Motor Company. The Court awards prejudgment interest at the annual rate of 8%, to be paid from the date this action was commenced on January 30, 2020, until the date of the entry of this judgment. The total prejudgment interest is $66,904.10. Post judgment interest is payable on all of the above at the rate of 2.66% from the date this judgment is entered until the date this judgment is paid. Further, Plaintiff has represented to Ford that she has $6,888,500.00 in settlements and that the Pennsylvania litigation she has brought against another defendant remains pending. In an effort to bring all set-off considerations to the Court at one time, the Parties agree that all issues related to set-offs will be addressed in post-judgment motions. The Parties further agree that no party has waived any issue related to the amount or form of the judgment or set-offs, and that a motion under Fed. R. Civ. P. 59 or a similar rule will be appropriate and timely to address those issues. This will allow the Court to address the set-off of the judgment, interest, and any costs at one time. (Garland, Leah)

July 29, 2021 Opinion or Order Motion Referred: RE: #233 MOTION for Extension of Time to Extend Daubert Motions Deadline, to MAG/JUDGE L. PATRICK AULD. (Blay, Debbie)
July 29, 2021 Opinion or Order TEXT ORDER denying #233 Motion to Extend the Daubert Motions Deadline. As grounds for the extension requested in #233 Motion, Defendant Pneumo Abex LLC has argued that "the Court's ruling on [ #207 ] Motion to Compel will impact the parties' arguments regarding Daubert motions. Specifically, the results of [] Plaintiff's expert's fiber burden analysis [production of which #207 Motion seeks]... is very likely to show the existence of... evidence [which] goes directly to the reliability of Plaintiff's expert's causation opinions...." In other words, #233 Motion rests on at least two different suppositions: (1) that Defendant Pneumo Abex LLC will prevail on #207 Motion; and (2) that the evidence ordered produced will have certain characteristics. The Court declines to delay the filing of Daubert motions based on such multi-level speculation, particularly given that Defendant Pneumo Abex LLC can seek leave to file a supplemental Daubert motion and/or brief (and to shift the expenses of such supplemental filings to Plaintiff) if events unfold as it hopes. Issued by MAG/JUDGE L. PATRICK AULD on 07/29/2021. (AULD, L.)

July 28, 2021 Opinion or Order TEXT ORDER denying #234 Motion to Strike, pursuant to Local Rule 7.3(k), which states: "A motion unaccompanied by a required brief may, in the discretion of the Court, be summarily denied." Pursuant to Local Rule 7.3(a), "[a]ll motions, unless made during a hearing or at trial,... shall be accompanied by a brief except as provided in section (j) of [Local R]ule [7.3]." Local Rule 7.3(j), in turn, does not exempt motions to strike from the briefing requirement. In deciding to exercise its discretion to summarily deny #234 Motion pursuant to Local Rule 7.3(k), the Court has taken into consideration the fact that #234 Motion seeks the striking of #232 Reply based on the failure of Defendant Pneumo Abex LLC to comply with Local Rule 37.1(c). The Court properly should insist that a party requesting relief on the basis of another party's non-compliance with the Local Rules takes care to see that such request complies with the Local Rules. The Court also has considered the fact that #234 Motion fails to acknowledge that, upon the filing of #231 Response, the CM/ECF system errantly auto-generated Docket Text stating "Replies due by 7/27/2021," the date on which Defendant Pneumo Abex LLC filed #232 Reply (i.e., 14 days after the filing of #231 Response, as generally permitted for replies under Local Rule 7.3(h), rather than seven days after the filing of a discovery motion response, as specified by Local Rule 37.1(c)). Although Plaintiff remained free to argue (in a proper brief) that the Court should strike #232 Reply notwithstanding the conflict between the directive placed on the Docket and Local Rule 37.1(c), the Court properly should insist that parties address such material matters. Issued by MAG/JUDGE L. PATRICK AULD on 07/28/2021. (AULD, L.)
