ORDER STAYING CERTAIN PROCEEDINGS
JANE M. VIRDEN, Magistrate Judge.
Local Uniform Civil Rule 16(b)(3)(B) provides that "[f]iling...an immunity defense ... motion stays the attorney conference and disclosure requirements and all discovery not related to the issue pending the court's ruling on the motion, including any appeal. Whether to permit discovery on issues related to a motion asserting an immunity defense ...is a decision committed to the discretion of the court." L.U. CIV. R. 16(b)(3)(B). Accordingly, staying discovery not related to the immunity issue in this case is appropriate at this time.
IT IS, THERFORE, ORDERED that the aforementioned proceedings are hereby STAYED pending a ruling on the motion to dismiss [50]. Defendants shall notify the undersigned magistrate judge within seven (7) days of a decision on the motion and shall submit a proposed order lifting the stay.
SO ORDERED.
