C ONDI T I ONAL TRANSFER ORDER (C T O-22)
On June 21, 2006, the Panel transferred two civil actions to the United States District Court for
the District of New Jersey for coordinated or consolidated pretrial proceedings pursuant to 28
U.S.C. § 1407. See 435 F.Supp.2d 1352 (J.P.M.L. 2006). Since that time, 159 additional actions
have been transferred to the District of New Jersey. With the consent of that court, all such
actions have been assigned to the Honorable William J. Martini.
It appears that the actions on this conditional transfer order involve questions of fact that are
common to the actions previously transferred to the District of New Jersey and assigned to Judge
Martini.
Pursuant to Rule 7.4 of the Rules of Procedure of the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation,
199 F.R.D. 425, 435-36 (2001), these actions are transferred under 28 U.S.C. § 1407 to the
District of New Jersey for the reasons stated in the order of June 21, 2006, and, with the consent
of that court, assigned to the Honorable William J. Martini.
This order does not become effective until it is filed in the Office of the Clerk of the United
States District Court for the District of New Jersey. The transmittal of this order to said Clerk
shall be stayed 15 days from the entry thereof If any party files a notice of opposition with the
Clerk of the Panel within this 15-day period, the stay wi.Il be continued until further order of the
Panel.
Inasnguch as ri objection is FOR THE PANEL:
pending at this time, the
stay IS Ilfléd, I I .
