MEMO ENDORSEMENT on re: 14 Letter, filed by Ann Prusinski, The Sullivan County Board of Elections, Rodney Gaebel. ENDORSEMENT: These cases (both) were transferred to me as part of a routine review and redistribution of work between the two S.D.N.Y. courthouses. As sometimes occurs, cases are sent from one courthouse to another in that process. These two cases were randomly chosen along with 80 others. (Thus, there was nothing unique to these cases which caused the transfer intra-district). I have both cases. I will handle both cases to conclusion. If, when we meet, and all parties discuss the discovery to occur -- the witnesses, documents, etc. do not overlap at all -- that will be very relevant to future coordination. Please note, the cases have not been "joined" -- they are not "consolidated". They are only, at this point - "coordinated". (Signed by Judge Katherine B.

ORDER terminating 40 Letter Motion for Extension of Time. The Court is in receipt of the parties' August 7, 2015 letters regarding how discovery should proceed in light of the death of defendant Rodney Gaebel.
