STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER STAYING DISCOVERY
GEORGE FOLEY, Jr., Magistrate Judge.
The above-named parties, by and through their respective counsel of record, hereby stipulate and agree to stay discovery in the above-captioned litigation until the Court issues a ruling on Lexington Insurance Company's ("Lexington") motion to dismiss Centex Homes' ("Centex") complaint (ECF No. 11), which defendant Zurich American Insurance Company has joined. (ECF No. 19). Lexington's motion to dismiss involves an issue central to this case and central to coverage under many of the defendants' insurance policies. The parties do not want to expend resources performing discovery until the Court issues a ruling on the dispositive issues raised in Lexington's motion.
Lexington filed a nearly identical dispositive motion in a similar case that is currently pending entitled Centex Homes v. Everest Nat'l Ins. Co., et al., D. Nev. Case No.: 2:16-cv-01275-GMN-PAL (hereinafter "Callaway"). The Court in the Callaway case recently stayed discovery due to Lexington's pending dispositive motion. (ECF No. 37 in Callaway).
The parties thus stipulate and agree that discovery in this case should be stayed until after the Court issues a ruling on Lexington's motion, in order to save resources and promote efficiency.
ORDER
IT IS SO ORDERED.
