TEXT ORDER - Ordinarily at this juncture the court would trigger the parties' scheduling conference activities, and deadline for provision of their joint report and plan through issuance of initial order regarding planning and scheduling. Where defendant has filed a motion to dismiss and plaintiff has filed a motion to amend, good cause appears to delay these activities. Unless a party raises objection in filing due within 14 days from this date, the court stays the parties' scheduling conference activities pending decision on motions submitted for ruling 9/19/24. Signed by District Judge Louise Wood Flanagan on 11/6/2024. Copy sent via US mail to plaintiff. (Collins, S)
