October 8, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 87 ORDER: Now before the court are three motions #60 , #69 , #84 , all seeking to compel arbitration. For the reasons set forth in the accompanying Memorandum #86 , all three motions are DENIED. The stay of discovery and the stay of briefing on the plaintiff's Motion for Conditional Certification and Court-Authorized Notice (Doc. No. #26 ) in effect pursuant to the court's July 14, 2020 Order (Doc. No. #46 ) is LIFTED. Defendant Delek SHALL respond to the motion within 30 days of entry of this Order, and an optional reply may be filed within 14 days of the response. Because all deadlines set forth in the Initial Case Management Order (Doc.
