White v. GM Motor Company et al Doc. 10 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK -----------------------------------------------------------------------------x IN RE: GENERAL MOTORS LLC IGNITION SWITCH LITIGATION This Document Relates To: Anderson v. GM Motors & Shareholders, 21-CV-1006 White v. GM Motor Co., 21-CV-8241 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------x 14-MD-2543 (JMF) MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER JESSE M. FURMAN, United States District Judge: On September 22, 2021, Defendant New GM filed a motion for civil contempt in Anderson v. GM Motors & Shareholders, Case No. 21-CV-1006, asking the Court to enforce the parties’ revised settlement agreement. See 21-CV-1006, ECF No. 79. That settlement agreement requires Mr. Anderson, within 30 days of the agreement and before receiving his settlement payment, to provide New GM “with written documentation from a junk yard or other business entity capable of crushing the Subject Vehicle confirming that the entity has crushed the Subject Vehicle.” See 21-CV-1006, ECF No. 94-4 §§ B.1.c, B.2. In New GM’s reply brief, however, New GM now says that it does not want Mr. Anderson to immediately crush the vehicle, because New GM wishes to inspect the vehicle as potential evidence in a separate case also before this Court, White v. GM Motor Co., Case No. 21-CV-8241. See ECF No. 93 at 7. In the Court’s judgment, the parties should sort out the inspection issue before a decision is rendered on New GM’s motion for civil contempt. Accordingly, the parties in these cases are hereby ORDERED to promptly confer with respect to whether and when an inspection of the vehicle could take place. New GM shall report back to the Court no later than November 12, 2021. In the meantime, the Court will reserve decision on New GM’s motion. SO ORDERED. Dated: October 29, 2021 New York, New York __________________________________ JESSE M. FURMAN United States District Judge Dockets.Justia.com
