December 13, 2012 Opinion or Order Filing 81 MEMORANDUM OPINION. Because the Court concludes that there is not a substantial ground for difference of opinion regarding the Order and Opinion, and that an interlocutory appeal would not materially advance the termination of the litigation, U.S. Steel's Motion for certification for interlocutory appeal pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1292(b) is denied. An appropriate Order will issue. Signed by Judge Mark R. Hornak on 12/13/12. (bdb)
