ORDER

Before the Court is the parties' Second Joint Motion to Stay Case. ECF No. 42. In the instant motion, the parties move the Court to stay this matter pending the resolution of an appeal of the final order in Human Rights Defense Center v. Baxter County, Arkansas, 3:17-cv-03070-TLB. Upon consideration, the Court notes that the present case and Baxter County are very similar and, therefore, any opinion issued by the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals in Baxter County will likely be useful in deciding the present controversy. Accordingly, the Court finds that the instant motion should be and hereby is GRANTED. Therefore, the Court finds that this matter should be and hereby is STAYED. Moreover, in light of the fact that it is unclear when the Eighth Circuit will render a decision in Baxter County, the Clerk of Court is directed to ADMINISTRATIVELY TERMINATE the present case. The parties are DIRECTED to file a motion to reopen this matter within ten days of the date the Eighth Circuit issues its ruling in Baxter County.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
