D'AMICO -v- WASTE MANAGEMENT OF NEW YORK, LLC, No. 6:2018cv06080 - Document 73 (W.D.N.Y. 2019)

Court Description: ORDER denying 62 Motion to Consolidate Cases. The Court finds that informal consolidation of the two cases for fact discovery related to the class certification is the appropriate route in this case. However, the Court agrees with Defendant that fo r informal consolidation to be beneficial, the discovery deadline in this case should be extended. Accordingly, the Court will amend the current scheduling order to extend the deadline for factual discovery on class certification. For the reasons set forth above, the court DENIES Defendant's motion to consolidate the present case with the FAFE case for the purposes of discovery (ECF No. 62 .), without prejudice. Signed by Hon. Mark W. Pedersen on 12/14/2019. (JB)
