Mellin et al v. Duda et al Doc. 113 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT EASTERN DISTRICT OF LOUISIANA NANCY MELLIN ET AL. CIVIL ACTION VERSUS NO: 16-17737 ANTHONY DUDA ET AL. SECTION "H" ORDER Before the Court are Defendant National Union Fire Insurance Company’s Motion to Continue Trial (Doc. 112) and Plaintiffs’ Motion to Strike Defendants’ Experts (Doc. 80). Defendant seeks a continuance of trial to allow for “additional time to await the Court’s ruling on [Plaintiff’s] Daubert motion, to evaluate and pursue any appellate options, and to adjust discovery and trial strategies.” Accordingly; IT IS ORDERED that Plaintiffs’ Daubert motion is DENIED with reasons to follow. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that in light of the above ruling, Defendant’s stated reasons for a continuance are moot, and the Motion to Continue is DENIED. 1 Even so, this Court notes that it finds Defendant’s reasons for the requested continuance less than compelling, especially because there is no option for immediate appeal of a ruling on a motion in limine. See 28 U.S.C. § 1291. 1 Dockets.Justia.com New Orleans, Louisiana this 18th day of March, 2019. ____________________________________ JANE TRICHE MILAZZO UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
