Kmart Corp. 1:02-cv-107 Order Denying Plaintiffs’ Motion to Vacate THIS MATTER came before the Court upon Plaintiffs’ Motion to Vacate August 17, 2010[,] Discovery Order in Compliance with August 13, 2010[,] Order of the Third Circuit Court of Appeals (1:02-cv-107, Docket No. 298). This order is issued without necessity of response. At the outset, the Court notes that Plaintiffs’ motion, although filed in the cases that have been “associated” for the purposes of the disqualification issue, centers upon an order entered by Judge Savage in the case Bergan v. Kmart Corporation, 1:07-cv-120, a case in which Plaintiff Bergan has not filed a motion to recuse and that has not been joined as an associated case with the other matters. Even though the Third Circuit lists Bergan as a petitioner and cites the case number in its order dated August 13, 2010, this Court has not administratively or otherwise joined Bergan with the other cases associated for the purposes of the disqualification issue. Assuming, arguendo, that the undersigned has the authority to consider this particular motion to vacate, the Court will deny the motion. The order at issue specifically references a previous order (Docket No. 91), entered July 6, 2010, in which the Court directed Plaintiff Bergan’s counsel to file a statement. This directive is not in the nature of discovery. Even if one could, somehow, characterize the order as a “discovery” order, as the undersigned already has determined, nothing in the order issued by the Third Circuit Case: 1:07-cv-00091-AET-GWC Document #: 175 Filed: 08/26/10 Page 3 of 4 Wallace v. Kmart Corp. 1:02-cv-107 Order Denying Plaintiffs’ Motion to Vacate restricts or prevents or otherwise prohibits Judge Savage from enforcing or requiring compliance with any previous order(s) he has entered. Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED that Plaintiffs’ Motion to Vacate August 17, 2010[,] Discovery Order in Compliance with August 13, 2010[,] Order of the Third Circuit Court of Appeals (1:02-cv-107, Docket No. 298) is DENIED.
