ORDER STAYING CERTAIN PROCEEDINGS

Local Uniform Civil Rule 16(b)(3)(B) provides that "a motion asserting a jurisdictional defense . . . stays the attorney conference and disclosure requirements and all discovery, pending the court's ruling on the motion, including any appeal." L.U. CIV. R. 16(b)(3)(B).

Canadian National Railway has filed a motion to dismiss for lack of jurisdiction at the conclusion of jurisdictional discovery. Doc. #80. Accordingly, staying discovery in this case is appropriate at this time.

IT IS, THERFORE, ORDERED that the aforementioned proceedings are hereby STAYED, pending a ruling on the jurisdictional motion, and the case management conference [79] will be cancelled by separate notice. 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.
