ORDER

CHARLES H. WEIGLE, Magistrate Judge.

Before the Court is a Motion to Stay filed by Defendant Lashanda Amos. Doc. 51. In the Motion, the Defendant requests that discovery in the above-styled case be stayed pending the final resolution of Defendant's Motion to Dismiss (Doc. 50). Given the dispositive nature of the Defendant's Motion to Dismiss, it is in the interests of justice to grant a limited stay of discovery pending the resolution of the Defendant's Motion to Dismiss in order to avoid any potentially unnecessary costs and burdens associated with further litigation. Accordingly, Defendant's Motion to Stay is hereby GRANTED, except to the limited issue of exhaustion of administrative remedies, until either the pending Motion to Dismiss is resolved or until further order of the Court.

SO ORDERED.
