Current stage: Hearing Held
The plaintiffs filed a multi-plaintiff complaint and several motions, including requests to proceed under pseudonyms, to seal records, and for a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction. The court held a hearing on June 8, granted the pseudonym and sealing requests, and deferred the injunction while addressing reassignment; it later denied reassignment and took the defendant’s motion to dismiss under advisement. The docket thereafter reflects a stay and an order on a motion to stay, but the entries do not specify the stay’s details or a final disposition.
