By Denise Morgan-Stone on May 19, 2010 May 04, 2010 UNITED STATES JUDICIAL PANEL on MULTIDISTRICT LITIGATION IN RE: DIGITEK PRODUCTS LIABILITY LITIGATION (SEE ATTACHED SCHEDULE) CONDITIONAL TRANSFER ORDER (CTO-31) MDL No. 1968 On August 13, 2008, the Panel transferred eight civil actions to the United States District Court for the Southern District of West Virginia for coordinated or consolidated pretrial proceedings pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1407. See 571 F.Supp.2d 1376 (J.P.M.L. 2008). Since that time, 260 additional actions have been transferred to the Southern District of West Virginia. With the consent of that court, all such actions have been assigned to the Honorable Joseph R. Goodwin. It appears that the actions on this conditional transfer order involve questions of fact that are common to the actions previously transferred to the Southern District of West Virginia and assigned to Judge Goodwin. 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 Southern District of West Virginia for the reasons stated in the order of August 13, 2008, and, with the consent of that court, assigned to the Honorable Joseph R. Goodwin. This order does not become effective until it is filed in the Office of the Clerk of the United States District Court for the Southern District of West Virginia. The transmittal of this order to said Clerk shall be stayed 14 days from the entry thereof. If any party files a notice of opposition with the Clerk of the Panel within this 14-day period, the stay will be continued until further order of the Panel.
