DAVID R. HERNDON, District Judge.
This matter is before the Court on Syngenta's Motion Dismiss Plaintiffs That Did Not Produce a Plaintiff Fact Sheet (Doc. 155). The plaintiffs have responded (Doc. 161) and Syngenta has replied (Doc. 167). Based on the record and the following, Court ORDERS as follows:
On June 16, 2016, the Court issued a Revised Scheduling and Discovery Order requiring plaintiffs to timely submit a complete PFS on or before July 1, 2016 (Doc. 143). The order further provided as follows:
(Doc. 143). On August 12, 2016, Syngenta filed a motion to dismiss those plaintiffs who failed to serve a PFS by the July 1 deadline (Doc. 155).
Subsequently, a Second Revised Scheduling and Discovery Order was entered (as proposed by the parties) (Doc. 159). The Second Revised Scheduling and Discovery Order recognized that the parties were experiencing more problems than originally expected in completing PFS submissions and revised a number of deadlines. As a result of this Court's modification of its Scheduling Order (Doc. 159), no Plaintiffs have, to date, had their case dismissed.
In accord with the Second Revised Scheduling and Discovery Order, the plaintiffs filed a responsive pleading on September 15, 2016 (Doc. 161). Plaintiffs' response attaches a list of plaintiffs who, as of September 1, 2016, have submitted a PFS (Doc. 161-1). Syngenta has replied (Doc. 167). Syngenta states that it has reviewed the plaintiffs' entire production of PFSs, including the September 1 production, and has provided the Court with a final list of the plaintiffs who, as of September 1, 2016, have not served a PFS (Doc. 167-1). Syngenta now seeks dismissal of the plaintiffs identified in this list (Doc. 167-1).
The Court
The plaintiffs who served a PFS as of September 1, 2016 (identified in Doc. 161-1) will not have their cases dismissed at this time. To the extent that any of these PFSs are deficient, those deficiencies will be addressed in accord with the Court's Deficiency Order (Doc. 166).
The plaintiffs who did not serve a PFS on or before September 1, 2016 are subject to dismissal. It is the Court's understanding that Exhibit A to Syngenta's reply (Doc. 167-1) identifies those plaintiffs who, as of September 1, 2016, had not submitted a PFS Accordingly,
Although the claims of the plaintiffs identified in Doc. 167-1 are hereby dismissed without prejudice, the
