After reviewing the pleadings on file including the parties' joint status reports [Dkts. 27, 37] and conducting a telephonic hearing on December 29, 2022 [Dkt. 39], the special master recommends transferring this case for further proceedings because this case is in the process of completing discovery and ready to be set for trial; consequently, the case would no longer benefit from inclusion in the coordinated or consolidated pretrial proceedings before this Court. Further, the special master recommends transferring the case to the Eastern District of Texas pursuant to the recommendation in the parties' joint status report [Dkt. 36]. The following motions are currently pending in this case: Motions to Exclude [Dkts. 28, 29]; and Motions in Limine [Dkts. 33, 34, 35].

The transcripts and docket entry from those conferences are attached and are being docketed in all cases remaining in the MDL because they could affect outstanding legal and factual disputes among the parties in any of the cases.
