WILLIAM WILSON JR., District Judge
This Order applies to every newly transferred West Virginia case that was filed by the Calwell Practice, PLLC. The cases are listed in Exhibit A (this Order does not apply to closed cases that may appear on the list).
Since December, I've entered over 1,000 orders dismissing Defendants in cases filed by the Calwell Practice. It appears that in many of the cases the dismissed Defendants should not have been sued. Since the end to filing these dismissals does not appear to be in sight, I've come up with a remedy.
The parties are directed to "meet and confer" to determine which Defendants should be in each case. After "meeting and conferring," Plaintiffs must file amended complaints removing all unnecessary Defendants (without further leave from the Court) by 5 p.m., Tuesday, March 31, 2009. The first paragraph of each amended complaint must set out which Defendant(s) are dismissed based on the amended complaint.
If, at a later time, additional motions to dismiss are filed, and it appears that the Defendants should not have been named in the Amended Complaint, I may well impose sanctions.
IT IS SO ORDERED. Exhibit A Nancy Lucion, 4:08-cv-3890 Patricia Lyons and Ronald Lyons, 4:08-cv-3891 Frances Macknight and James Macknight, 4:08-cv-3892 Nancy Marcum and Van Marcum, Jr., 4:08-cv-3893 Juanita Marshall and Roscoe Marshall, 4:08-cv-3894 Imogene Mason and Richard Mason, 4:08-cv-3895 Beverly Massey and Larry Massey, 4:08-cv-3896 Charles Maxwell, Executor of the Estate of Dianna Maxwell, 4:08-cv-3897 Juanita May, 4:08-cv-3898 Judy May, 4:08-cv-3899 Phyllis May, 4:08-cv-3900 Pansy Mayes and William Mayes, 4:08-cv-3901 Dolores Mayle and Selvy Mayle, Jr., 4:08-cv-3902 Mary Maynard and Paul Maynard, Sr., 4:08-cv-3903 Ila Maynor and Robert Maynor, 4:08-cv-3904 Mary Mayo and George Mayo, 4:08-cv-3905 Helen McClure and Marvin McClure, 4:08-cv-3906 Donna McCormick, 4:08-cv-3908 Terry McElroy, 4:08-cv-3910 Betty McGraw and Barry McGraw, 4:08-cv-3912 Alice McManaman and Garnet McManaman, 4:08-cv-3915 Arlene McMillion, 4:08-cv-3916 Clara Means and Ronald Means, 4:08-cv-3953 Teresa White and John S.
