`
`ORDER GRANTING END-PAYOR PLAINTIFFS’ MOTION TO MODIFY
`STIPULATED ORDER OF DISCOVERY
`
`Before the Court is End-Payor Plaintiffs (“EPPs”)’ Objections to the
`
`
`
`Master’s Order re EPPs’ Motion to Modify the Stipulated Order of Discovery.
`
`EPPs filed objections on October 10, 2014 to the Master’s order of October 8,
`
`2014 with the Court per Fed. R. Civ. P. 53(f)(2) and the Order Appointing a Master
`
`(ECF No. 792). The Court has reviewed these objections de novo pursuant to Fed.
`
`R. Civ. P. 53(f).
`
`
`
`Upon consideration of the parties’ arguments, the Master’s Order, and EPPs’
`
`objections, the motion is GRANTED. The Court amends the Master’s Order as
`
`follows:
`
`
`
`The Court modifies the Discovery Stay to permit Plaintiffs to serve
`
`discovery on all defendants who have pled guilty or agreed to plead guilty in cases
`
`that are or become part of MDL 2311 (“Guilty Pleading Defendants”) seeking the
`
`identification of vehicles affected by the conduct described in their plea
`
`agreements. Plaintiffs may serve discovery consistent with this order in all cases
`
`that are presently or become part of this multidistrict litigation. Guilty Pleading
`
`Defendants in all product cases must substantively respond to the proposed
`
`interrogatory attached as Exhibit 1 to Plaintiffs’ objections.
`
`
`
`The United States Department of Justice does not object to this limited
`
`discovery, and the Guilty Pleading Defendants have not identified any burden or

`expense in providing it. The discovery would be helpful to the Court, the Master,
`
`all parties, and interested third-parties.
`
`
`
`IT IS SO ORDERED.
