DAVID R. HERNDON, Chief District Judge.
On March 16, 2013, Bayer filed a motion seeking with prejudice dismissal, of the above captioned plaintiffs' claims.
Pursuant to the Court's local rules, the plaintiffs had 30 days to file a responsive pleading. None of the above captioned plaintiffs filed a responsive pleading. At the expiration of the responsive pleading deadline, as is required under CMO 60, the motion was considered by Special Master Stephen Saltzburg.
In each case, the parties were given 14 days to respond or object to Special Master Saltzburg's report and recommendation. The 14 day deadline for responding or objecting to the Special Master's report has expired. None of the above captioned plaintiffs have responded or objected.
Upon consideration of Bayer's motion to dismiss, the Special Master's reports, and the requirements of CMO 60, the Court finds that all but one of the subject plaintiffs have failed to comply with CMO 60. The exception is plaintiff Mary Theresa Massucci in member action Tanya Etie, et al. v. Bayer HealthCare Pharmaceuticals Inc., et al. No. 3:11-cv-10423-DRH-PMF. Plaintiff Massucci's claims were dismissed without prejudice pursuant to a stipulation of dismissal filed by the parties in August 2011 (Doc. 8). The Court will not now dismiss plaintiff Massucci's claims with prejudice for failure to comply with an order entered in March 2013 (after the parties stipulated to the dismissal of her claims).
Accordingly,
With regard to plaintiff Mary Theresa Massucci, should counsel for either party demonstrate that regardless of her status as a dismissed plaintiff, Ms. Massucci was provided with a gallbladder settlement package in order to supply the information needed and, therefore, given the opportunity to participate but failed to do so, the Court will reconsider the denial herein. However, such information and motion to reconsider must be filed in accordance with the rules governing either Rule 59 or 60, but the Court shall consider such evidence new evidence.
As to the remaining plaintiffs, the Court adopts Special Master Saltzburg's reports. The subject plaintiffs' claims are therefore
